Julian Revised #5086

Open Blash20 opened 3 months ago

Blash20 commented 3 months ago

Would it be useful to add the "Revised Julian Calendar" to calendrical_calculations and calendar? The calendar has been in use by some Orthodox churches since the 1920s. If so, I am interested in doing so.

In general yes, we're happy to accept additional calendar contributions!

Not opposed. An important question to answer is whether Julian and RevisedJulian should be a part of AnyCalendar. I think for now we can leave them out and add them as CLDR gets support, but I'm open to being convinced to add them.

(I'm worried about clients who are doing datetime formatting needing to carry around extra code because AnyCalendar supports unformattable calendars)
