ICal question

Does anyone have any code that is using Recurrence Rules?  I see them in the
ICal-Model category and I am using them to set up recurring events, but I
didn't see any methods or anything for calculating what dates will actually
happen from the rule.

Before I write something up I thought I would check.

You're right. ICal-Model only models them and does not compute them.
Computing the full ICal recurrence model is "a bit tricky" so you will
probably only want to implement what you need.

Robin Barendregt:
"Some time ago I published a package in Cincom's public repository
called Recurrences that was based on iCal.
Maybe you can reuse some of that to do some leg work for you.
There is also a RecurrencesTesting package that contains tests for the
examples in the iCal RFC."

Maybe Yann Monclar has build something in this direction for his
SummerTalk project.

Forgive my ignorance, but where is the Cincom public repository?  I went to
the site, didn't see an obvious link, search for "iCal" and "Recurrences"
came up empty.

You can access the cincom public StORE from the VW image. in the  
transcript window you have a store menu.

HTH,
