Yasumi v1.5.0 Release Notes

Released on November 25, 2016

Being occupied with other projects is good but has the side effect some others don't get the attention they deserve (sorry Yasumi). However, happy to announce a new release of Yasumi with 4 new countries added and holiday providers for all the German states.

Yasumi now supports 62 holiday providers (23 countries and 39 sub-regions) and has over 1500 unit tests ensuring all holidays are calculated correctly.

Big thanks to all the contributors making Yasumi better and more complete!

Implemented enhancements: - Added Holiday Provider for Australia (and the sub-region of Victoria). #38 (brucealdridge) - Added Holiday Provider for Portugal. #44 (rvelhote) - Added Holiday Provider for Ukraine. #41 (madmis) - Added Holiday Providers for all 16 German States. #34 (stelgenhof) - Added Holiday Provider for Croatia. #32 (karlomikus) - Possibility to retrieve the next or previous working day within a defined number of days from today #39 (brucealdridge) - You can now also use your own holiday providers in addition to the included holiday providers. A very helpful improvement if Yasumi does not include your provider (yet), but you want to use yours! #29 (navarr)

Resolved issues: - Carnival Day in Brazil was incorrectly set to be 47 days after Easter. Carnival Day begins Friday before Ash Wednesday (51 days to Easter). #36 (icaroce) - All Saints Day for Finland was incorrectly set for November 1st. The correct date is Saturday between 31 Oct and 6 Nov, similar to Sweden. #43 (stelgenhof)
