[uf-discuss] Tutorial on expressing recurring events using hCalendar

[Brian Suda]

i took some time to see how Apple's iCalendar models re-occuring
events which would be closest to store hours. The resulting iCalendar
file looks something like:

BEGIN:VEVENT
DTSTART:20070212T080000
DTEND:20070212T170000
SUMMARY:Open Hours
RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=MO,TU,WE,TH,FR;WKST=SU
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR

The RRULE in hCalendar will need to model data similar to this.

The DTSTART and DTEND are the begining and ending times on a daily
basis. 9am - 5pm

The RRULE has a frequency of weekly, and then BYDAY to show which days
they are open.
