Congrats!

Norway seems to be moving in the opposite direction. They have stopped giving permenant residencies that are well, permanent.

Today's permenent residencies requires renewal every 2 years, which means an application plus 800kr 3 months before the permenant residency expires, a 1 month wait while the police re-examine your criminal record (or lack thereof), and a trip to the downtown central police station to get a new stamp that's valid for, guess what, only 2 years.

Congratulations on the permanent residence permit! That's awesome, you are now completely your own person within your chosen country. And by your last line, I take it you're going for citizenship? Cool. :D
