Indeed, a new disc type with more capacity, about 25 GB per layer as opposed to the 4.5 GB per layer for DVDs.

The Norwegian dll has been updated to the latest version, downloadable from the language dll update page. The Italian help file has been updated as well and more sections have been translated.

After the last big translation action a couple of languages stayed unfinished. To renew interest other than after a new version release we would like to ask people if they are willing to complete a couple of the translations.
