	/** Generic Milesian calendar, as defined in www.calendriermilesien.org (short English presentation available from the welcome page).
	 * The Milesian calendar reorganises the months of the ISO 8601 year. 
	 * The year begins on Dec. 21 (Dec. 22 before a Gregorian leap year), and months have regular lengths: 30 and 31 days alternatively.
	 * Months have unambiguous notation and names: 1m, 2m, etc. to 12m, said Firstem, Secondem, Thirdem... Twelfthem.
	 * The intercalation day is the last day of the year: 12m 31, which always fall on Dec. 21.
	 * There is no era: years are always algebraic integer numbers.
	 * Since this calendar uses new month names, a private local data repository (PLDR) is necessary in order to display month names.
	 * @class
	 * @param {string} id	- the calendar identifier.
	 * @param {Object} pldr	- a document object, with the specific names for the Milesian calendar (after languages, countries etc.).

	/** Generic French revolution calendar. This calendar was defined and enforced in France in 1993, and cancelled in Januray 1806. 
	 * Strictly speaking, it is not an algorithmic calendar. The new year is supposed to fall on the autumnal equinox as observed in Paris.
	 * This algorithmic implementation is based on a 128-year cycle comprising 31 leap years. 
	 * A leap years occur most often 4 years after the last one, and sometimes 5 years after.
	 * This algorithm gives exact results for the period 1992-1806, and also for 1870 where the calendar was briefly enforced under the Commune de Paris.
	 * Only one new year does not match the initial definition during the first 128-years cycle: 
	 * the equinox occurred at 23:44 on the 6 ss day of 81 Ere des Français, 82 should have been a sextile year instead of 81.
	 * A PLDR is necessary to display this calendar's date expression, however names are given in comments, as a simple implementation is also possible.
	 * @class
	 * @param {string} id	- the calendar identifier.
	 * @param {Object} pldr	- a Document Object, with the specific names for the French revolution calendar in several languages, for several countries etc.
