Very common in Europe, where businesses often operate relative to weeks; we frequently use week numbers for that reason (an abomination in my opinion). Ruby has decent but not great support for ISO week numbers.

Yep, an example: I edit OpenStreetMap. The opening_hours property allows one to represent a wide range of opening hours. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:opening_hours

A lot of public parks in London are open at different times during summer and winter.

Here's an example I added personally, the churchyard of St Anne's Church in Soho. http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/40879988

"week 1-13 Mo-Su 10:00-16:00; week 14-43 10:00-18:00; week 44-52 10:00-16:00"
