[loc-en-dev] Norwegian special lookup

[Naoto Sato]

I have one comment on the last bullet.

Currently applications have to specify the country code "NO" even for 
the cases just providing Nynorsk translation regardless of the country. 
So I think it'd be better to fall back to "no_NO_NY" for "nn" being 
requested.
