If the changes are just a couple of lines, then just copy-n-paste them
in the message.  Anything bigger than please open a feature request in
bugs.kde.org using the link below [1].

Yes, get all the files you want submitted in English, then we can tell
the translators that they exist.  Unfortunately we're not integareted
in the automatic translation system, someone has to manually create
the new file, but is some ways that's better as it usually means you
have a local compiling the file who understands better what's
appropriate for that country.

Yes, julian is valid

Yes, in fact here's the full list:

gregorian
julian
coptic
ethiopian
hebrew
hijri    [Islamic Civil]
indiannational
jalali    [Persian]

Unfortunately we don't have Chinese or Hindi or Islamic lunar calendar support.

Note when defining rules in an alternative calendar system you need to
use the proper month names as defined from line 155 in [2].  Things do
get tricky in the Hebrew calendar with leap months, ask if you need
any help.

Cheers!

John.
