I thought that the Events where supposed to be able span multi days now (1.6)

Ignacio says this is possible in his release post.. but I don't see anywhere to actually change the duration of the event beyond hours.  Am I just missing something?

Hi,

I'm a new OpenGoo user (maybe I should say Feng Office), so I may be giving you the wrong answer.
I guess you must use the repeting event feature and repeat the event by day until the specified date. I don't think this is the best way to solve this problem, but it does do the job.

Sorry if my written english sounds strange, I'm portuguese.

hmmn.. in my install under repeat event I see daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, holiday and this day only.  There is not date modifier to set when the repeating event stops.

You should set the Repeating Event to "Repeating Daily". The "Repeat Until" date field will be visible after you select that option.
With this date field you can select where it will stop. Now the event will propagate thru the days until the specified date.
