Subject: Re: [office-formula] OFFICE-2164: EASTERSUNDAY
I'm looking at this from a "linguistic and cultural adaptability" perspective, which is an ISO/IEC requirement. There are two dates where Easter is celebrated, if you consider as well the Eastern Orthodox observance. And then there are all the other holidays which have movable dates in various religions and cultures which base such dates on a lunar calendar. I wonder whether the approach is to have a function called HOLIDAY(String name, Number year), which you could call as: HOLIDAY("Easter", 2009) or HOLIDAY("Easter-Orthodox", 2009) or HOLIDAY("Passover", 2010) We could reserve strings for the major observances and then allow implementation-defined extensions. -Rob Eike Rathke <erack@sun.com> wrote on 10/26/2009 11:28:12 AM: > > http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2164 > > I propose to define the EASTERSUNDAY function. > > Any objections? > > Eike > > --
