The current scheme works well for some things that don't depend on the year:
feast of the Saints, Christmas, etc, but for other things like Good Friday it
would easier to just have it in the sword API .. I am pretty sure there is a
formula to calculate the weekday.

With the current scheme I can do lots of cool things though: I don't (yet) know
the details but the daily Mass readings for the RCC are carefully planned three
years in advance.

Thanks to all people working in sword!
