I was thinking: I want to add a new event with no defined ending date and a pattern like 'every 1st monday and 4th tuesday a month'.. Then the program should tell me 'You already have an event on the 16th of february 3056'.
I know that all this isn't possible but I am just curious what the closest solution would be.
