Read all the other posts but not sure if any resolution:
1. Recurring Event Bug
There may be a bug in piCal's "Recur Yes" calculation. In entering a Meeting event on the 2nd Thursday of each month starting on August 12 and ending on December 9, there were two problems: (a) the meeting was assigned to Friday, November 12th; (b) the meeting was not assigned to December 9th.
As a workaround, the ending date was changed to November 11, and a separate non-recurring event was added for November 11.
2. Holiday Data
piCal appears to store holiday dates in the piCal/language/english/pical_vars.phtml file. These values determine (at least) the background color (in the calendar) of the specified dates.
Is there any documentation on parameter specifications and the format of this file?
3. Browser crash on popup date entry
Oh, yeah, by the way, using the pop-up calendar feature to enter dates for events has crashed my browser (Safari) a few times.
I like piCal. Keep up the good work.
hi jph0.

I don't think the extracting routine itself for recurring events has such a bug.
The problem is easily caused by a viriety of wrong settings.
- The server has summer time (I think it is a wrong setting)
- Wrong setting of timezones
You can check it this site.
The event will be extracted correctly.

I don't have such a documentation.
But the structure is quite easy.
You can specify the holiday's data like this:
language/(your language)/pical_vars.html
$this->holidays = array( '(Formats of Y-n-j)' => 1 , ... );
Formats of Y-n-j is not compatible Y-m-d like ISO.
Sep 1 2004 in US English should be written as 2004-9-1 instead of 2004-09-01.

hmmm.
piCal uses the calendar of XOOPS core.
If you can, claim it core team.
As I don't have Mac, I can't debug it.
