Several other Churches[2] use the Revised Julian calendar, which is indistinguishable from the Gregorian until the year 2800, for the fixed feasts of the ecclesiastical year. However, even those on the Revised Julian still uses the (original) Julian calendar for the calculation of Easter and the moveable feasts so holiday-greek-orthodox-easter would still apply. My source for this is http://orthodoxwiki.org/Revised_Julian_Calendar [1] In addition to the Churches of Jerusalem, Serbia, Ukraine, and Georgia [2] Constantinople, Antioch, Greece, Cyprus, Romania, Poland, Bulgaria, and the Orthodox Church in America
