Hi All,
The traditional Gregorian calendar is not so mathematical, it doesnt'
contain Zero in it, and its months are not equal in size. I think it is
formally Erratic. From the formal mathematical point of view it is not
correct.
I propose the following Calendar as a more mathematically acceptable
Calendar.

Zuhair, you might wish to consider the (to me) far less complex and
more easily understood, yet mathematically more regular than the
Gregorian, calendar introduced several decades ago under the name of
the "World Calendar". Don't know who originated it, sorry, but maybe a
search engine might turn it up. It might have been in the book "Mapping
time; the calendar and its history", by E.G. Richards.
I have implemented the World Calendar, as well as various others, at
http://www.public.asu.edu/~checkma/today.html .
