Apparently I was not very awake when I wrote that. Awk could be used to increment dates by n days, weeks, moths or years. But this would only be needed if we want / need to turn iCal RRULE events with COUNT specifier into COUNT separate org events (trying to circumvent the lack of such a COUNT specifier in org repeating dates). So although it is feasable, I'm still not sure it is the proper way to go. However, I am willing to implement it if needed / desired. > So I would definitely vote to extend the repeater syntax with a > count.
