It seems that If I go for the way where I set the date_end to NULL when
having infinite events then I compromise ability to calculate for
example overlapping events appearing in the infinite future (though i
could calculate overlaps in a timewindow).
Or I store events as single entries in a db, so I compromise 'infinity'
but can calculate overlapping events in the future... Funny, so both
solutions are the same ? :)
Anyways - I don't want to tire you guys and really apprechiate your
replies... Is this such a common problem? I can't find so many sites
discussing this issues though there are lots of calendar
applications...
