I wish to set up a table of recurring, and non-recurring events.

I have been looking at http://justatheory.com/computers/databases/postgresql/recurring_events.html

which looks nice (complex but nice) and wonder if there was a better option for this in more recent pgsql versions.

All pointers gratefully received.

use generate_series

 postgres=# select v::date from generate_series(current_date, current_date + 100, interval '7days') g(v);
