v 1.16 - Repeating Events & Bug Fixes
Repeating Events
An event now has a repeating type, this can be one of the options in the screen shot below.
If an event is found to be in the past or it occurs whilst being displayed then it's date is updated accordingly.
v 1.16 also fixes a bug that was causing a crash on initialisation if the "current event" was the last event in the list and it was deleted. Please report any problems to phil.bevan@gmail.com.

Daylight Savings
I have had a few emails pointing out that for some events the countdown timer is incorrect by exactly 1 hour.
I just wanted to clarify that the countdown timer does take into account any daylight saving that will be in place when the event takes place.
For example, San Francisco has no daylight saving in place at the time of this blog post 20 February 2012. Daylight saving starts for Pacific Standard time on 11 March 2012, ending on 4 November 2012.
So any event that takes place between those dates will appear to be incorrect by 1 hour. Of course it only looks that way the actual amont of time between now and the event date/time is correct.
