Hi,

For now, first_workday is 1 by default, i.e. Sunday (since first day
of the week system is 19971130, i.e. Sunday). This is probably wrong
for many locales. At least fr_FR should be corrected into first_workday
set to 2 (monday).

Regards,
Samuel

I don't know if this is correct wrti the software Sunday being 1
and Monday being 2, but if it is, I sincerely believe it is an
error in the software. Monday should be 1, and Sunday should be 0 or
Seven. This according both to the POSIX standard ISO/IEC 9945 and
to the ISO locale standard ISO/IEC TR 14652.

Best regards
keld

Please re-read 14652 about week:

     If the keyword is not specified the values are taken as 7, 19971130
     (a Sunday), and 7 (Saturday), respectively. ISO 8601 conforming
     applications should use the values 7, 19971201 (a Monday), and 4
     (Thursday), respectively. This keyword is optional.

Hence 1 can designate a Sunday (default value), or a Monday (ISO 8601
behavior), or actually anything else (other week systems).

Regards,
Samuel

Looking at the text of 14652 it should not be correct to list the
first_workday as 2 . In France, AFAIK, they start the week on Monday,
and the first workday is Monday. That is, first_workday = 1.
But it also then needs a correction for the week to begin on a Monday.

keld

So "week" should be corrected too. But I wonder if "first_weekday" is
useful at all then.
