Description
Related to Temporal, discussed in tc39/proposal-temporal#526. Eras in a calendar must have a unique identifier.
From tc39/proposal-temporal#526 (comment):
We had a lengthy discussion about this today and decided to use the transliteration as the era identifier for the five modern eras (starting with
meiji
). For pre-meiji
eras, we will use either a century syntax (likeheisei-13xx
) or just fall back to the Gregorian CE/BCE eras.
Some user research is probably indicated here, to determine whether there is an existing convention for this.
