[Launchpad Bug Tracker <600514@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been assigned a bug task for a public bug by David Planella (dpm):

This is a rather large bug, because it affects most of Ubuntu's own
translations to Nynorsk. The issue is that much of the nynorsk
translated by the Ubuntu community does not follow the language
guidelines defined for nynorsk translations and sometimes not even the
rules defined by the Norwegian Language Council.

For instance:
* I have during the install seen many verb infinitives ending with -e (guidelines say it should end with -a)
* The text beneath the icon for installing Ubuntu on the live-CD says «Installér Ubuntu 10.04 LST», but «installér» is not allowed according to the Language Council.

It is important that translations follow the Language Council because
they can't be used in public education if they don't.

The language guidelines are available here:
http://i18n.skolelinux.no/retningslinjer.html (Norwegian)
