JA: oops...wrong owner...
Comment 3 Joost Andrae 2004-09-01 15:50:37 UTC 
JA->HDU: please have a look at this as it happens within /tools/options/language
settings/language for Norwegian Bokmål as well. Must be some encoding problem

Comment 5 hdu@apache.org 2004-09-02 08:30:42 UTC 
As JA noticed also the 'å' in "Norwegian Bokmål" got converted to the unicode
U+FFFD "REPLACEMENT CHARACTER", which is used to replace a character that cannot
be represented in unicode. Often it is a desparate help call from an encoding
conversion...
