Hi Vardan,

I'm the maintainer of the holiday files in KDE, and requesting support is a 
simple 3 steps:

1) Open a wish in bugs.kde.org with Product = kdepimlibs and Component = 
kholidays.
2) Provide some reliable weblinks to the rules for calculating the holidays, 
not just a list of dates and names.  Wikipedia and other English websites are 
OK for me to understand, but I usually prefer having an official government 
website for confirmation and listing as the official reference for future 
updates (this can be in Armenian if not available in English).
3) Be available to help with translating names and rules, answering questions, 
and testing the new file when I've written it.

You could have a try writing the file yourself, but the format is a bit 
archaic and not well documented.  You can find the current holiday files at 
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdepimlibs/kholidays/holidays/plan2/ and if 
you understand lex/yacc grammers then the code rules are at 
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdepimlibs/kholidays/parsers/plan2/holidayscannerplan.lpp?view=markup 
and 
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdepimlibs/kholidays/parsers/plan2/holidayparserplan.ypp?view=markup.

Cheers!

John.
