License: Other/Proprietary License Changes:
This release fixes the calculation of Julian day for B.C. dates. In addition, the handling of the switch between the Julian and the Gregorian calendar was made more consistent. This enables proper date/time math for dates in the distant past. If performing analysis with dates before 1583, updating is strongly recommended. Several astronomy libraries were also improved, and functions to control output format were added.
