Comment (by Anderton):

 The recommendation from the Membership organization ”Svenska
 datatermgruppen” (Apple, IBM, Microsoft Radio Sweden (like BBC Radio),
 universities and goverment organisations, Language Council of Sweden and
 Statistics Sweden to mention a few) regarding use of Swedish ÅÄÖåäö in
 data is:

 Å = A
 Ä = A
 Ö = O
 å = a
 ä = a
 ö = o

 (http://www.datatermgruppen.se/fragor-och-svar.html#f1) (You need to run
 it thru Google Translate)

 It's also defacto standard in Sweden (i know, born and raised here and
 have using computers since 1980), and it's also a pattern used by
 developers working with systems at The Swedish Parliament.
