- The kind of publication pattern you describe has to be handled with
- multiple patterns. There's no way one pattern can predict it, but we've
- started experimenting with titles like these and have set up a sequence
- of patterns which we hope will cover the situation. It becomes an issue
- of how much time you can devote to these problem situations where
- multiple patterns are needed. For something that is monthly except for
- one month (when it is semi-monthly), you essentially need a monthly pattern,
- then a semi-monthly pattern, then another monthly pattern, etc. I can see
- where a problem might arise if the predicted date of the first issue
- expected on the pattern doesn't fall in line with the actual date of
- arrival, so the receivers are going to have to pay close attention when
- receiving. We've put CHECK-IN NOTES on these patterns.
