Hello there, Following on from a bit of discussion on & off misc@, below is an attempt at a United Kingdom calendar file, with major items already in calendar.holiday ommitted. e.g. New Year's Day, although it is an offical bank/public holiday. http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/DIFF-New-Year-s-calendar-td286907.html
The new file isn't super solid, but could be a resonable starting point. It would be difficult for an additional English language calendar file to be perfect due to a number of existing duplicate items, in multiple files, which I'm trying to tread quietly around numerous changes. Much of the formatting, grammar &c. is a matter of taste, while being similar to existing entries. There is an incorrect entry in calendar.holiday for an August bank holiday. The name was wrong & dates wrong for 2 countries. 2 other countries of the UK were missing it on a different date, and as it isn't of any international significance, I've corrected it in the new U.K. file.
