I'm not sure if this convention varies from country to country (or if 
Bacula's internal calendar is guaranteed to have 52 weeks a year) but at 
least somewhere a year can occasionally have 53 weeks in the country's 
official calendar. This may cause the even/odd week schedule to fail in the 
beginning of January when there are two odd weeks in a row.

Is it safe to expect one week to fit into one tape in the case in question? 
If not, using retention periods to control this may also lead to different 
behaviour than originally planned.
