(Not speaking for Hans Fredrik who, as translator, should have the
final word on this, so please take this as a simple advice)

I usually encourage translators to send UTF-8 encoded
files. However. I think that there is no reason to *enforce* this and
I generally discourage maintainers to do it themselves without
translator's approval.

A good compromise is asking, just like you did. Either the translators
refuses, for good or bad reasons, and I recommend to not insist. Or
(s)he accepts and you can do do it The Right Way:

msgconv -t utf-8 nb.po >nb-new.po
