After reading nb.po, I agree. We have "working copy - arbeidskopi" so
that makes sense.

After looking at nb.po's Dictionary part, I have a small suggestion:

> daemon - daemon, demon(?)

I suggest s/daemon|demon/tjeneste/.

"daemon" is a cool word but not very cross platform friendly. Everyone
will probably understand "tjeneste" which also appears quite sporadic in
the *nix world as well.

Øyvind, You are doing an incredible good job here. nb.po is the best
translation work I've seen, it's very difficult to translate a program
like svn because it's both very technical and end user centrated
(serving both "narrow minded nerds" and "ordinary users" ;-) at the same
time. Hats off too you! :-)
