My 2 cents: IMHO there's no way to edit date/time intervals/recurrences by hand, without the aid of some simple editor/dialog. So I guess the format being complicated isn't a problem: that's natural.
OSM could use a subset of the iCalendar format, which already exists, is open, and has libraries and everything. It would be easier to view/import/export in/to/from most of the calendar applications. 2010/5/6 John Smith <deltafoxtrot...@gmail.com> > On 7 May 2010 03:54, John Smith <deltafoxtrot...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On 7 May 2010 03:30, Thomas Meller <thomas.mel...@gmx.net> wrote: > >> Complicated, yes. > >> You cannot avoid complexity if you want to cover all cases. > > > > You haven't given a good explanation or example of why the added > > complexity is needed other than to cover unforeseen situation.
