### what happens in google calendar if you repeat task monthly at 31st day of month and the next month has fewer days? ChatGPT: If you set a task to repeat monthly on the 31st day of the month in Google Calendar, and the next month has fewer days (e.g., February or some months with 30 days), the task will fall on the last day of that month. ### It is the same as the change proposed in the POLL. > Should it be configurable per user, per file, or even per rule > (timestamp with repeater)? We ought to have a switch to the existing behaviour, but I do not think that we need it per-file or per-timestamp. If we do need such granularity, it implies that some people actually prefer the existing behaviour - something we are yet to hear in the replies to this poll. > An example of recently designed library (however Org does not support > calendars with leap *months*): > <https://tc39.es/proposal-temporal/docs/calendar.html#handling-unusual-dates-leap-days-leap-months-and-skipped-or-repeated-periods> > "Handling unusual dates: leap days, leap months, and skipped or repeated > periods" (Temporal proposal for JavaScript) This also picks the closest existing date - the change we propose in this POLL. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
