# Hanke-Henry Calendar

`hanke-henry` is a gem that deals with the proposed

[Hanke-Henry Calendar][1].

This calendar has the following characteristics over

the presently adopted Gregorian Calendar:

1. Calendar remains identical for the most part.

1. No time zones.

1. No Daylight Savings Time.

The typical year in the current Gregorian calendar has 365 days, which is 52

weeks and 1 day.

The leap years occur every 4 years (with some exceptions).

The basic idea of the Hanke-Henry calendar is to gather the overflow days of

the typical year and the leap days and into chunks of 7, which will form a

mini-month (called _Xtr_) at the end of the year every so often.

The H-H calendar also proposes to abolish time zones and Daylight Savings Time,

essentially standardizing on the current UTC.

`hanke-henry` extends the Date and DateTime classes to deal with this

calendar.
