No, repeating items go on forever (as far as I know) I normally deal with this with a second deadline item to kill the task. Something like this: ,----[ university.org ] | * Classes | ** TODO CSC243 Practical | SCHEDULED: <2008-10-28 Tue 11:00-13:00 +1w> | *** TODO Task ends | DEADLINE: <2008-12-16 Tue -7d> | `---- and then I just remove the +1w from the CSC243 task and mark it and the deadline task as done. I would also recommend putting these tasks in a separate org file and just adding it to your agenda with C-c [. Then it's easy to drop it from the agenda in the future with C-c ].
