Hello Michiel,

WD>>>> We are nowhere near that Julian date.
HD>>> You realy use Julian dates ?
HD>>> We are at Gregorian dates for already many centuries.
WD>> You really are stupid? Or you just want to look like it?

MvdV> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_day

I see, but I did not know that.
I only knew about the Julian calendar and the Gregorian calandar
as used sincs 1582.
FidoNet was not alive during the Julian period.

MvdV> We are now at Julain date 2458209.076389

I did never see that big figures in FidoNet NodeLists.
Only the figures 001 until and inclusive 366 are used as a day number.
The 366 only appears in leap years when 31st of december is a friday.
I am displaying that 3 figure daynumber at my RISC OS task bar for years,
inclusive the leading zero's.
So I always know the daynumber from January the 1st.
Even the (ISO) weeknumber is displayed for reference pruposes.

So now I can convert Gregorian days to the old Julian dates ;-).
But I do not see an application for it.
For the NodeList, one can simply count the days passed since january the first.
 You do not need that webhosted converting utility.
