[Wikipedia-l] no/nb interwiki links

Having recently tried a bot run on nn:, I learned that there is a
difference between nb: and no: interwiki links. They both go to
no.wikipedia.org, but nb calls it "Norsk (bokmål)" whereas no calls it
"Norsk". What policy should be used for deciding which one to apply?

Previously, the bot used no: always, I have now changed it to use nb:
if there is also an nn: link (and of course if working on nn:).
Perhaps I should always use nb:? What are people's opinion on this,
both from the no: community and from outside?
