If your use case somehow has "mutable" events, you can retract, change
the duration and reinsert. The engine uses optimizations for the temporal
reasoning that are based on the fact that events should be immutable. That
is why the engine "resolves" the timestamp/duration attributes at insert
time and make them immutable.

Hi Edson,
so, when i want modify an event, i could do as follow:
- clone event;
- change the duration
- retract the previuos event
- insert the new event
Is it right?
Bye bye,
Matteo.
