I've got a rather odd problem that I can't seem to solve easily with
the given date manipulation functions.
I've got an expiry timestamp and a renewal interval. If something has
expired it gets renewed as the expiry + renewal * n
Where n is the smallest number that will cause the calculation to
result in the future.
So if I've got a resource that is renewed by the hour and it expired
last week then I need to add on enough hours so its new expiry will
be up to 1 hour in the future. Only trouble is this renewal period
can be anything from minutes to months and it may have expired up to
6 months ago.
If I could convert the timestamp into a julian of some sort perhaps I
could do the math that way.
Any ideas?
