I would prefer the one person generate for the rest of us method, as this will
cut down on instalation hassles and lead to less frustration... 

gcal doesn't seem to break down the holidays by locals very well... but then
I've only been playing with it for 10 mins.... so once a list is generated I
think there will be a few diffs as everyone fixes the holidays for their
particular region, I know there's allready one mistake in the New Zealand
holidays... (we don't have a New Zealand day, it's Waitangi Day).

Also the list allows admins to quickly add in their local (university, staff
etc) holidays without recompiling gcal...

FYI gcal is available for win32 from a couple of locations.
