Shouldn't be much work at all to add another name and offset. This isn't the first era change in my lifetime, and date libraries should already support the basic concept, e.g., https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsdatecomponents/1416364-era https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsdatec...
- eloisant 8y agoWell this is the first era change in the life on many software and libraries, so while everyone knew it was coming sooner or later most software have never been tested in "real life". I just hope no Japanese developer stored dates as "era+month+day" instead of Gregorian or epoch (or relying on a library that does).
