Good you located this problem.

Better yet you corrected it!

It would be good if there was some kind of sub-committee who knows

astrological/astronomical calculations and programming for debugging and

checking any release of the CAL program since it affects all the devotees

and their practice of Krishna consciousness.

 

Also as I mentioned earlier the Gaudiya Maths want that ISKCON Calendar

Pandits and GM pundits get together and try to work out a truce or agreement

for a combined calendar. Or at least it would become clear what everyone

agrees and disagrees on. I hope that everyone is now happy.

 

Thankyou for following up on this.

 

I hope that this finds you in good health.

 

Your well wisher,

 

Jayapataka Swami
