I leave this up to the BBT devotees, like Jayadvaita Swami, to consider.

 

Another common practice is to release beta-versions to a limited amount of

beta-testing people before a real release.

 

A part of the mistake here is that I obviously did not compare the calendars

that 4.00 produced, to the same calendars produced by earlier versions. I have

done that now though with 4.00, and that is how I figured out the 4-5% or 1

ekadasi per year error rate. And I have done it for 4.01 and thus verified that

it gives the same result as earlier versions.

I will be happy to change the calendar, if needed, according to the decisions

of such a committee. I can take part in such a committee as a

technical/astronomical "expert", but when it comes to which celebrations we

should include etc. then that is not really my table.
