Created attachment 52487 [details] the holiday file I tried to write by myself Version: 4.5 (using KDE 4.5.2) OS: Linux Details on Hong Kong General Holidays: The legislation: http://www.legislation.gov.hk/blis_ind.nsf/CurAllEngDoc/EC16AF2AF1A319BD88256489000ADF4E?OpenDocument Date of the holidays in 2010 and 2011 http://www.gov.hk/en/about/abouthk/holiday/2010.htm http://www.gov.hk/en/about/abouthk/holiday/ I tried to write the holiday file myself, but I'm not so sure if it is correct. Please see attachment. Thanks! Reproducible: Always
How can I test the holiday file? I googled but there did not seem to be instructions.
1. I think that renaming the file to holiday_hk will be more appropriate because it will be displayed as "Hong Kong SAR(China)" I've modified it and attached a new modified version of the holiday file which is tested on my system (KDE 4.4.5)

Do you think that putting Ching Ming Festival onto the solar calendar section is more appropriate? It's nearly always on 5 April, with only occasional exceptions once in 4 years.

Does it work on later versions?

I've checked the file and found that the Buddha's birthdays in 2001, 2012 and 2020 are wrong (should be in April instead of May), the Chung Yeung Festival in 2014 is wrong (in 2014, it should be on 2 October instead of 1 November), the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2012 is wrong (as the day after mid-autumn festival overlaps with National Day and that day is a Monday, a supplement holiday is given after that day).
http://hk.news.yahoo.com/政府公布2013公眾假期-035617225.html Starting from 2013, the rule for reassigning holiday when it is on Sunday is changed. The supplement will always be after the Sunday and no longer on Saturday.
