[Remind-Fans] Opinions sought

[Dianne Skoll]

Hi,

Seeking opinions about how to structure the holiday files I ship with
Remind.  Which of the following do you prefer?

Option 1:

       # Get all of the holidays in Ontario, including Canada-wide holidays
       INCLUDE [$SysInclude]/holidays/ca/on.rem


Or Option 2:

       # Get the Canada-wide holidays
       INCLUDE [$SysInclude]/holidays/ca.rem

       # Get the Ontario-specific holidays
       INCLUDE [$SysInclude]/holidays/ca/on.rem

In other words, should the regional files only include the holidays
for the specific region?  Or should they automatically pull in the
country-wide holidays too?

Option 1 is simpler.  But option 2 allows for the case where we might have
an incomplete set of files for a country (ie, some missing regions)
and then once those regions are filled in, we just add a line to pull
in the appropriate region.  It also allows for the case where
(for some reason) you might want only the national holidays and
not the region-specific ones or vice-versa.

Regards,

Dianne.
