I think we should change the end of the calendar year to the end of February. It just seems like a better time to have a year wrap up. That way we can start a new year in early spring when trees are budding, grass is greening, flowers are blooming, and animals are mating.
Let's make it happen.

@cav@infosec.exchange You expect me to believe this has nothing to do with an OCD frustration with latin numerical prefixes? Sneaky. I approve.

@cav@infosec.exchange you're asking for a return to how it used to be for the romans, the new year started with the month of march and their motivation to do so was much the same as your motivation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_calendar
