FA-77144 / Calendar recurrence rules / Member archive
Monthly day 29-31 with OMIT/BACKWARD/FORWARD skip policy: skip default · case 04
A series without an explicit skip policy moves missing days forward instead of omitting them.
Case contract
FREQ=MONTHLY on a fixed monthday from the dtstart month. When the day does not exist in a month, skip decides: OMIT (also the default when skip is None) drops the month, BACKWARD uses the last day of the month, FORWARD uses the first day of the following month. February has 29 days in leap years. Instances before dtstart are dropped. Return the first count ISO dates.
Why this case matters
Recurring calendar series are expanded into concrete instances for display, reminders and conflict checks.
