No, that is Uwe -- as the new version 0.2.1 is already on CRAN :)

Thanks again for catching this.

| Ok, bug found.  In the R file definining the convenience functions
| 
| getEndOfBizWeek <- function(date = Sys.Date()) {
|     stopifnot(inherits(date, "Date"))
|     bdt$getEndOfBizWeek(date)
| }
| 
| getEndOfMonth <- function(date = Sys.Date()) {
|     stopifnot(inherits(date, "Date"))
|     bdt$getEndOfMonth(date)
| }
| 
| both of these miss the crucial
| 
|     bdt$fromDate(date)
| 
| to actually set the date you supply.  You could write yourself a local
| variant til the updated package comes through.
| 
| Thanks for spotting this.
