v1.5 Mon Mar 21 11:10:47 CET 2011

• Tobias Leich fixed:
  • Sloppy whitespaces and indentation
  • Status of Easter Sunday and Whit Sunday as official holidays only in one state.
  • State code for Berlin. Code differed from documentation and there is limited use for the empty Berlin holiday set anyway, so we assume that this slight interface change won't break anything.
