Hi Myles,

Thanks a lot for your help. I also do not quite understand the way it
works, and I hope there must be a simpler way to mark previous occurrences
as "DONE", while those in the future as "TO DO", for a given reccurring
event.

If something else is available, please advise.

Kind regards,

Tomasz
