Diary s-exprs can do things like this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

* TODO every third Thursday of the month
  <%%(org-float t 4 3)>

* TODO every first and third Wednesday of the month
  <%%(or (org-float t 3 1) (org-float t 3 3))>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
