Comment (by apm at one.com):

 Replying to [comment:4 wsanchez at apple.com]:
 > The index is supposed to indicate how far out expansion has happened for
 each event, and if a query against the index goes beyond that time, the
 expansion should be brought out farther, up to a defined limit.

 Yes but that indication is stored in the RESOURCE table in RECURRANCE_MAX
 and unless I'm sorely mistaken a simple grep will show that RECURRANCE_MAX
 is used no where in the 1.2 code except in "create table" statements and
 in the "insert into" statement which first inserts the event into the
 RESOURCE table. (index.py).
 No where is the value brought out farther.

 I'm sad to see this bumped to milestone 2.x. I would suspect this to be a
 serious blocker for any practical use. No events of the "same time, next
 year" kind can be used in the calendar. Anniversaries and every other
 event more than 356 days into the future will also disappear.
