[Mageia-i18n] Norwegian Bokmål (nb) team Status and development

[thomas]

The team is established in Transifex and has one member - yours truly. 
On Olivers request I pinged the two people that have volunteered on the 
wiki. Olorin and Tertitten. I have translated a lot in one operation 
because I think it is more efficient to do as much as possible while it 
is fresh. Also my time is limited so it makes good sense to get others 
in there.

Olorin=Ola Dahlum=odahlum at gmail dot com
Tertitten = Terje Guldbrandsen = tertitten74 at gmail dot com

I have not been able to reach Tertitten yet.

Olorin was very confident that he could do a better job of it than I had 
done and was not prepared to discuss on what specific entries the 
improvement was needed. In any case he has it all ready made in the 
shape of files from the Madriva translations.    There was only one 
thing to do: Replace all my translation with his files. In all modesty I 
thought I had used the vocabulary from Skolelinux and Mandriva (And 
above all the head - a rather underestimated instrument these days;).

*Suggestion:*

Anyway this is good news; olorin clearly indicated his willingness to 
take over and provide the data necessary. He has translated OpenOffice 
and has a very strong opinion of what is not good enough. And my time is 
limited so this is "gefundenes Fressen".
_TODO: Provide a Transfix account for Olorin_
He also indicated that he knows a lot of people so the future of the 
team should be in good hands. Also I am sure Tertitten will be willing 
to honor his commitment so while I try to contact him we could establish 
his account too:
_TODO: Provide a Transfix account for Tertitten._

It is not clear to what extent this will be needed considering the 
already translated files that olorin will provide. But one extra person 
to do the makeup should be enough.
It might be a good idea to get an overview of what files olorin can 
provide -and more importantly- what files he does not have.

So that the team knows what can be translated. This can be done by 
olorin providing his files ASAP  - (how much time do we have?), or in 
the shape of a list provided by olorin.
_TODO-olorin._

Once that is provided I will stop by from time to time and provide a 
modest contribution on those files.
