Well, you're right that in French languages names are not
capitalized. Still, in the French translations of ISO 639, I didi use
capitals.

This was on request of the GNOME developers who stated that, most of
the time, these translations are used in lists....where a list of
uncapitalized names look really weird.

So, I made an exception and capitalized the language names and I would
recommend doing the same for Danish.
