NengoCalc error

It appears that there may be an minor error in NengoCalc's data-set for the 11th year of Kan'ei -- a small problem in the transition between the 7th month and the 8th month.

Isaac Titsingh's translation of Nipon o daï itsi ran explains that Shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu appeared at Court in Kyoto in the 7th month of Kan'ei 11.

Richard Ponsonby-Fane's Kyoto: the Old Capital of Japan, 794-1869. reports that the shogun visited ex-emperor Go-Mizunoo on "August 27."

In that context, NengoCalc's last day of the 7th month of the 11th year of Kan'ei is 22.8.1634 (Tuesday) or 寛永十一年七月二十九日

NengoCalc's first day of the 8th month of the 11th year of Kan'ei is 22.9.1634 (Friday) or 寛永十一年八月一日

I worry that this small mistake may have ramifications in subsequent dates? --Tenmei (talk) 15:48, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

This anomaly arises because of an additional intercalary month in 1634. I have learned that NengoCalc uses one conversion table per year. In the unfortunate event that one of these turns out to be defective only calculations for this very year would be affected. In short, this is only a small problem. --Tenmei (talk) 19:13, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
