Websites and links of interest

Couple of calendar links that may (or may not) be of use.

One is a Medieval Calendar Calculator which pulls up the calendar for any month and year. http://www.wallandbinkley.com/mcc/mcc_main.html

The other is a website which shows every Easter date ever (past and future). The main page shows from 1990 to 2050, with a link to a table that (with a little cross-referencing) shows from 1583 to 4099. It does, however, have a .zip textfile showing every Easter date from 326 to 4099 A.D. (e.g. Easter is 1220 was on March 29th, and for 1221 will be April 11. This site is at http://users.sa.chariot.net.au/~gmarts/eastcalc.htm. Do you find this valuable?

If it does not calculate the date of Pascha (Easter) using the entirety of the requirements of the First Oecumenical Council AND the Julian Calendar it will not be accurate. There's a reason the West and the East rarely celebrate The Feast of Feasts on the same day (although they did in the 13th century). Do you find this valuable?
