Vive la révolution! A few classes to convert from and to French republican calendar (that existed between 1792 and 1806)

French republican calendar

This is probably totally pointless. I did it for fun.
Available as a package.

How it works

The package exposes two main classes:

• FrenchRepublicanDateTime, a DateTime that exposes day, month and year (among others) of French Republican calendar.
• FrenchRepublicanTimeSpan, a TimeSpan that works with 10 hours a day, 100 minutes an hour and 100 seconds a minute. Right, French Republican seconds are not the same as our seconds. Ils sont fous ces français.
• FrenchRepublicanCalendar, a Calendar implementation for French Republican calendar.
