We came up with a rule of thumb to use the publication period, more or
less.  So you put 30 days for a monthly, 90 for a quarterly, 7 for a
weekly.  We didn't go beyond about 90 & some of the quarterlies we put
shorter than 90.  I think we used 3 or 4 days for the dailies. We're
starting to refine it now as we get more experience, but at least it's a
place to start.
