 No.

Not true for the first item: deadlines _can_ have repeaters:

--8---cut here---start-8---

Of course, yes, I stand corrected.   Thanks Sébastien!

Hi Bastien,

  1. can deadlines be time-ranges?

 No.

  2. in time-ranges, can both entries have repeaters?

 No.

  3. can deadline and closed have repeaters?

 No.

  4. are any combinations of deadline and scheduled valid?

 Yes!

Thanks, I had similar ideas but wanted to hear another opinion for
reinsurance. 

 i.e. I want to find out which timestamp-attributes are (or should be)
 neve used for which planning-element, and which combinations of these
 elements are (or should be) strictly forbidden.

 This does not really tell why, but maybe it's a secret :)

Sort of ... maybe more info in the future ;)

[O] Timestamps - anything goes?

2014-01-30 Thread Thorsten Jolitz

Hi List, 

(headline) timestamps, deadlines, scheduled and closed items are parsed
into timestamp lists with the following attributes:

- timestamp-type
- start date
- start time
- end date
- end time
- repeater-type
- repeater-value
- repeater-unit

Not all attributes seem to make sense for each element (closed as time
range? deadline with repeater?) and not all combinations of
timestamps/planning info seem reasonable (closed  scheduled later on). 

Is there any restriction in the use of planning/time info other than
common sense? If so, what are the ruled-out combinations and attribute
assignments?

cheers,
Thorsten

Common sense applies, but it applies best to examples.
I guess the question is too abstract for anyone to give
a useful answer -- what problem are you trying to solve?

 Common sense applies, but it applies best to examples.
 I guess the question is too abstract for anyone to give

There are actually several questions:

 1. can deadlines be time-ranges?
 2. in time-ranges, can both entries have repeaters?
 3. can deadline and closed have repeaters?
 4. are any combinations of deadline and scheduled valid?
 5. ...
