I just wanted to chime in and say that I thought the 1.x user interface for repeats was great and that I'm not sold on the 2.x interface (having it all in the node/edit interface). Anyone else? Or can someone talk about the benefits of the new interface and why it is going in this direction?

Thanks for the feedback

To answer is because now I use the node repeat widget and just rewrite a small part of it. In this way it will be more easy to stay compatible with future version of date.

Personally I don't like the two step edit style (but is mater of taste)... If you want that you can easily rewrite the form to do a multi-step form (their are certainly module doing that).

Anyways I was looking at the code today... and for my point of view is way to much complicated for what we doing. So i want to make this module simpler with less interface but easily extendable with submodule if someone come with a patch...

But yeah... they are two approach:

# transform the date repeat widget so it create node

# using a date field and adding an interface to create repeating node

I think the first one is better but I can be wrong.
