It has to do with religion to some extent, but the crucial thing is that it is a calendar. It consists of names of days. > The proposal was NOT to cite those texts in Emacs, the proposal was > just to _name_ them. I think we're using the word "cite" with two different meanings, both valid. We're talking about including in Emacs the names of certain biblical texts, right? Where do we draw the line? The natural place would be between (1) identifications/names of specific days, and (2) specific things some groups customarily DO on specific named days. The first is part of the calendar; the second is an adjunct used with the calendar. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
