Well, I prefer updating this information myself... Your edits compeltely reformatted the file, making it hard to read and understand. I reverted them as, moreover, the addition of "NOSEFI" in the "countries_official" and "countries_most_spoken" is wrong with regards to the rules we use: -countries_official lists countries were the said language is one of the *national* languages. My understanding of Sami is that it could be considered a "regional" language more than a national language (ie a language used for official publications in the country such as law texts and the like). Of course, I know that is is officially teached in some parts of Norway (which is why you try supporting it in Skolelinux), but, for me, it isn't enough to qualify and be listed there....without any offense intended of course -countries_most_spoken lists the country/countries where the said language is the most spoken language of the country. This is of course not the case for Sweden, Finland and Norway.... Both are used to paint the world in red and show countries that we "cover", depending on the way we count. This is why *no* country was listed for Sami. This was really intended and does absolutely not reflect the views I, or others, may have about the language of course....
