Of course, there are other important days that need to be considered as well. For example, I doubt that ICANN would organize a meeting in the U.S. on Thanksgiving weekend. Then there are national holidays to be considered - every country has one. I keep thinking that there must be a matrix somewhere that has as many of these considerations already slotted in. Are we reinventing the wheel here?

Also they left off one of the Jewish holidays shmini Atzeret (day of assembly) which is part of Simchat Torah and also sukkot should have an asterisk as well. Also it needs to be stated that the Jewish holidays start in the early evening
The days of significance is that the first two days of a holiday are days of religious observance and also the last days of a holiday
