Zmanim project can computes zmanim, the times (according to Jewish law) by which an observant Jew must complete specific prayers.

The default branch is a console version for Linux, and the QT branch is a GUI version for Linux using the QT GUI libraries.

What's New in This Release:
The sunrise and sunset were normalized correctly so that 24 hours don't get added to the results, while still being in GMT with the appropriate day in it.
This fixes issues with DST starting a day earlier in March than it should under Bush's energy bill.
putenv() is used instead of setenv() to let this compile on Solaris (and probably other Unix systems as well).
The use of the Hebrew word "Netz" was corrected to "HaNetz".
