Not being German, I wouldn't really know. ;) But Germans tend to be
pretty hardy, so I think it wouldn't be considered too rude. ;)

Interesting. :) Over here in Belgium, the 2nd of January is not
normally a holiday, although the 26th of December ─ Boxing Day in the
Anglo-Saxon world ─ is.

Hmm... There isn't anything special about either of these two years in
terms of numerical processing, so I don't really see how that would have
been the case.
They probably goofed up in the hosting of their content ─ e.g. they
could have put it on a different machine without adapting the routing to
the correct server, or something similar.

I was under the probably mistaken impression that they got upset over
language politeness eg du/Sie much more than the French over tu/vous
who may sometimes be prepared to overlook such "faux pas".

It seems that in most European mainland countries, if a "special" day
falls on a Saturday or Sunday then that is the holiday, whereas in
the UKofGB&NI people expect otherwise. If a "special" day falls on
a weekend, then the adjacent weekday is made the non-working day "in lieu".
(See, French creeps into English expressions all the time.)
So if Christmas Day is on a Saturday, that has meant in the past,
that most people did not return to work until Wednesday of the
following week and almost no shops would have opened until then.
Regardless of which day, the UKofGB&NI pretty much shuts down everything
for Christmas day -- no trains at all (many services stop early the evening
before), no long distance bus (coach) services, and only a very limited local
bus service to hospitals for visiting hours.
And what is most ridiculous -- many European and North American cities
operate extra local bus and even metro/subway services after midnight
of New Year's Eve -- almost all local bus services (and in some
places local train services as well) are stopped early on New Year's Eve.
(As always, things will probably be somewhat different in Greater London.)
Be advised that complaining about other train passengers' behavior
may lead to life threatening injury.

Yes that sounds a much more likely issue -- machine A shutdown for
some reason and somebody had forgotten to ensure that the contents
of the web site were present on standby machine B.

No, not that I remember. I did play a Russian police officer from
before the Russian revolution once in a stage play, and I've played a
local kid in a movie, and two Spanish characters in another play. ;)

I don't really know whether the Germans themselves would get upset over
that, but I know that my German /teachers/ would. :p

Yes, that is the same here, but not all of the time. In some cases the
next workday becomes a day off, but in other cases it is simply left "as
is".
What we do have here in Belgium concretely, is that if there is a
holiday on, say, a Thursday, the most administrations and businesses ─
albeit not the shops ─ will bridge with the weekend, and so then Friday
becomes a day off as well.

Ah, no, it's definitely not that extreme here.

Here, buses and trains still ride on holidays, but it will of course be
with a weekend-style schedule. And people who have to work on a holiday
get paid extra, of course. I'm not sure on the exact rates anymore, but
I think it's a Saturday rate (150% of normal wages for that day).
Sunday rates are always at double wages.

I'm not sure about that over here. There is typically a bus or train
after midnight, but not throughout the entire night, I believe.
However, on such days, there are special organizations of young drivers
who then volunteer to play taxi.
Well, that's for New Year's night of course. Not on Christmas night,
because then just about everything is closed anyway. ;)
It's been a while since I went out on New Year's night, though. I'm not
exactly a spring chicken anymore. ;)

Well, we do get violence on public transport here as well, and it
doesn't even have to be Christmas or New Year for that to happen.
People are become more audacious and more arrogant all the time.

German smiths present, a number of English-speaking smiths with a bit
of school-book German. All the former, save two, were very forgiving
of the bad habit of the latter of using du in conversation. The
exceptions were a pair of very well-off, hochpreussisch owners of a
large forging business. But then, they were rather snooty to the
other German smiths too.
