# From Paul Eggert (2013-07-03):
862
# To estimate what the Moroccan government will do in future years,
863
# transition dates for 2014 through 2021 were determined by running
864
# the following program under GNU Emacs 24.3:

#

# (while (< islamic-year 1444)

880
# (setq islamic-year (+ 1 islamic-year))))
881
#
882
# with the results hand-edited for 2020-2022, when the normal spring-forward
883
# date falls during the estimated Ramadan.
884
#
885
# From 2023 through 2038 Ramadan is not predicted to overlap with
886
# daylight saving time. Starting in 2039 there will be overlap again,
887
# but 32-bit time_t values roll around in 2038 so for now do not worry
888
# about dates after 2038.
