 # 21. Only today's date (or a Y year declaration) affects relative dates;
 # an explicit report period or forecast period does not. (#1845)
 # More explanation:
-# - "next quarter" is a relative date meaning "next quarter after the 1st of the current year".
-# - XXX it should probably be "after today", this has been affected by #1677's https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/commit/0f205295e806fccbfce0adbbff0e0ea6dd9f51d8#diff-fcee3c006b1d2e35b8c279c9daa9963ecdb5910bdc90099f7b3a37b8b529a65dR320
+# - "next quarter" is a relative date meaning "next quarter after the 1st of the current year" (a bug, see 21b).
 # - Current year is 2021 (because --today sets the current day to be in 2021, for a repeatable test). 
 # - Neither the start or end year of the report or forecast periods (2020, 2022) are used.

+# Also, without Y, relative dates should be relative to "today" (#1843, #1849). 
+# Explanation of the below: "next quarter" is a relative date. 
+# There's no Y, so it's relative to "today", which here is set to 2021-05-01
+# with --today for repeatability. The "recurrence period" begins with the first
