==Why have different relationship calculators?==
Different cultures and regions tend to view relationships in different ways. In the United States (and probably other English speaking regions), you can encounter a third cousin, twice removed, which in other regions is meaningless. Other cultures have different terms for your mother's grandfather and your father's grandfather, while English speaking regions would refer to both as a great-grandfather.
That's it for the requirements. The example <code>relcalc</code> plugins can be found in <code>src/Relationship.py</code> and <code>src/plugins/rel_ru.py</code>.
