Description

Hi there,

I/we will be looking to port some ruby code which made use of the [ice_cube](https://rubygems.org/gems/ice_cube) gem in the near future. I thought before we begin working on PRs for this repo we'd check to see if you have any thoughts on the following bits of functionality we plan to implement in order to port over successfully:
- [x] Support for [DateTime](http://elixir-lang.org/docs/stable/elixir/DateTime.html)
- [x] Recurrence Rule (RRULE) support: http://www.kanzaki.com/docs/ical/rrule.html
- [ ] Support for something similar to [Schedule#next_occurrences](https://github.com/johnhamelink/ice_cube/blob/master/lib/ice_cube/schedule.rb#L169)

Do you have any advice / tips / etc with regards to how this stuff gets implemented that will make sure we have a higher chance of getting merged? Any thoughts on how you'd implement these features?

Best
JH
