    novice.  Despite being OT I am writing in PHP so I ask here.

     I am writing an application that takes an .ical  file and
    displays the current week's appointments for a cognitively
    impaired woman (a dynamic whiteboard of appointments).

    I have everything working but the repetitive appointments and
    despite having read the rfcs I can't figure out how to calculate
    the dates.

    I really need someone who knows the .ical format to give me a hand.

    I know there was a php calendar group, but the most recent post
    was in 2015. I suspect they have become inactive.

    Maybe there are no posts because everyone looked and saw there's not
    been a post since 2015...
