I'm trying to convince people that even if Microsoft could be persuaded to release Norwegian Nynorsk software, there's no guarantee they will keep up in the future. Occasionally, people point to Iceland and say: 'Look, they did it!' Now I can fight back, telling them how things really worked out on Iceland ;-) > There was no other MS software translated.

Yeah, he's in charge ;-) I believe he says he's Icelandic, even if his name is truly international; Jon Stephenson von Tetzchner. I don't know if he did the translation himself, though. Anyone can translate Opera (Windows) these days, as the language resources are plain text files. Thanks for your help!
