Chalten might help, i remember it had representations for months of years (January of 1990), it might have something similar for weeks. On 13 May 2016 at 05:40, Cédrick Béler <cdrick65@gmail.com> wrote:
Yes I agree. We may have a preference to set the week day start (fistDayOfWeek ?).
After that we could agree on the fact the first week is the first complete week (otherwise it can be a preference).
Then we need to find the first day index of the first fistDayOfWeek. (Date year: self year day: 1) weekdayIndex -> gives the index according to the preference (for now Sunday -> 1)
Then itâs quite straightforward to get the week number.
Just have to check if the current date is in the last week of the previous year (returns 52 or 53). I did something but not sure yet (but no preference).
There are been some works on time representation (Chronos if I remember well ? but cannot load in Pharo 5, depends on OSProcess).
An interesting read [1].

Interesting to know. But I see this already seems hard coded...
Date nameOfDay: 1 "--> #Sunday"
Timespan subclass: #Date poolDictionaries: 'ChronologyConstants'
ChronologyConstants class >> initialize DayNames := #(Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday).
Also seems to have changed at some point, with the historical nameOfDay recorded in the Terse Guide [1] circa 2010 shown to be different. Perhaps this is something we should make a regional preference. Was there any ongoing works on other regional preferences?
