Hi Austin,
this is not supported, and I do not have plans to put it in. You
can either directly insert the several dates explicitly,
or define a repeating date and then just delete it once it is over.
If you really need this functionality,
I think it would be relatively easy to hack this, using a diary sexp
entry. Start with either diary-cyclic, or with diary-float, add
additional
arguments for the end date, and then see how dates are handled and
change the function to deal with the end date.
Hope this helps.
- Carsten
