Not sure what you mean by that, Matthew. The case which made me observe this bug was an event which recur every fourth week. The list shows the next five events (or so) from the day you select, and it's certainly not limited to events for the selected day. When selecting a day soon before the day of the second (or third...) instance of the recurring event, it was simply skipped. I have been using the event list in the clock as a planning tool for a while, and because of this bug I was about to forget about this recurring event. > Specification updated. > <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeAndDate?action=diff&rev2=110&rev1=109> I now see that the limitation to "for the selected day" you mention was added on 2015-05-11 in revision 100 of the specifitation. It hasn't been implemented yet AFAICT for regular events. Personally I consider this change to the spec. to be an important regression bug, and for me it's going to make the list more or less useless as a planning tool. I would strongly suggest that the spec is changed again, so the list is designed to show "the next five calendar events, if any" as was the case before revision 100. ** Changed in: indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to indicator-datetime in Ubuntu.
