Steven,
thank you for these valuable information.
I would like to know more about the functions' scope
What are their signatures and their descriptions? It would help me to
understand more about the project's scope.
Will their parameters be only dates in Gregorian pattern?
Sincerely,
Samuel Queiroz

Samuel,
The attached wordpad (rtf) document is a description of the Gregorian
Calendar algorithm and how it can be factored for use in the
Xalan-C EXSLT
project. Using a 400 year Gregorian Calendar Cycle for basis of
computation makes relatively easy the date-range calculations.
The Unix "cal" calendar program can also be used to validate new
Gregorian
calendar implementations. The "cal" program implements the Gregorian
Calendar algorithm for year range [1..5875706].
Sincerely,
Steven J. Hathaway
