This year it is Sunday anyway, so we have a whole year ahead to think about that. @Zipeg: No, no, it is an _official_ holiday, so they are going to watch TV: President giving speech praising Russian programmers, Prime Minister awarding industry leaders and ACM World Championship winners, etc. Maybe they will even gather for a (virtual) demonstration. :)
