I think the consensus here was that this kind of application would be
better handled by a database.

I started an experimental module called DateTime::Event::Spreadsheet,
that can be used to mix recurrences and databases - it should be able
to handle this type of queries, if properly configured. You can get it
from the project CVS.

I did some experiments with storing recurrence rules in a database,
but it ended up being too slow to be useful.
