Hi Lawrence, I've downloaded and run your program. Good one! With regard to:
a case I never thought of: Waitangi Day 2016 is “Mondayized” to February 8th, which is the second Monday. So my code reschedules to the first Monday. But that’s when Auckland Anniversary Day is being observed.
...I suspect there is also the potential for the ANZAC day holiday to be on the 4th Monday of April, and for the 3rd Monday of April to be Easter Monday holiday. ...but this shouldn't be a problem, as we could write to the Pope and ask him to shift Easter ;-) I guess the point is; do people prefer having the wlug meetings moved forward a week if its a public holiday, or would they prefer them always to be on the 4th Monday of the month irrespective of whether or not its a public holiday? Another option might be to shift the meetings to, say, the 4th Tuesday in the month. The conflict with public holidays should then only be ANZAC day (i.e. About once every seven years.) cheers, Ian.

The Python group (on the 2nd Monday) has far fewer clashes: none this year or last year, possibly one next year.
Hmm, actually that’s a case I never thought of: Waitangi Day 2016 is “Mondayized” to February 8th, which is the second Monday. So my code reschedules to the first Monday. But that’s when Auckland Anniversary Day is being observed.
Will there be a February meeting? _______________________________________________ wlug mailing list | wlug(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Unsubscribe: http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/wlug
