Description Erik Anderson 2008-01-07 10:05:01 UTC
Version:           1.2.4 (enterprise 0.20070907.709405) (using KDE 3.5.8, Kubuntu (gutsy) 4:3.5.8-0ubuntu3.1)
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.22-14-generic

ISSUE: Holidays can only be selected for one country at a time.

REQUEST: Holidays for multiple countries should be able to be displayed simultaneously, similar to capabilities present in MS Outlook.

I do business with people around the world, mostly in the US, UK, and Japan, and I find it very helpful to be able to see in my calendar which holidays are coming up for which country.  KOrganizer currently only allows me to choose one country at a time, via the dropdown list found under Settings -> Configure -> Time & Date -> Use holiday region.  

Furthermore, holidays in KOrganizer presently display no country information in the Calendar view, whereas Outlook will display the name of the holiday and the country as well, an addition that becomes very important when more than one country's holidays are shown at once.

Whoops -- could someone else close this as a DUPLICATE instead of WORKSFORME?  (c.f. Bug 92471)
