FA-76958 / Calendar recurrence rules / Member archive
Yearly BYMONTH/BYMONTHDAY with leap-day skipping: dtstart date compare · case 03
A series starting after the anniversary returns no instances at all.
Case contract
FREQ=YEARLY on a fixed month and day. Years are dtstart.year + k*interval. A year in which the date does not exist (for example February 29 in a common year) is skipped, never clamped. Gregorian leap years: divisible by 4, except centuries not divisible by 400. Instances before dtstart are dropped and the series ends at until (inclusive). Return ISO dates.
Why this case matters
Recurring calendar series are expanded into concrete instances for display, reminders and conflict checks.
