Introduction

        This is the calendar FAQ. Its purpose is to give an overview
        of the Christian, Hebrew, Persian, and Islamic calendars in
        common use. It will provide a historical background for the
        Christian calendar, plus an overview of the French
        Revolutionary calendar, the Maya calendar, and the Chinese
        calendar.
NOTE: The Calendar FAQ is now only available on the World Wide Web
