One idea I did have was to have them review the current Holiday data
files to firstly check the existing files are up-to-date and secondly
to create new files for countries that don't yet have them.  Reviewing
a file might take only 15 minutes if there's been no changes, or 30
minutes if there have been, so I'm not sure if that would be a good
task, but creating a new file should take a good couple of hours to do
the research, code the data file and submit the code.

Interested?

John.
