Bug
Description
What appears as a bug here is due to the way the Moodle calendar interprets the period of time during which a lesson is open as compared to current date.
(shown here using Moodle 1.5.2+)
Example
Today is Nov. 6th
Case 1 in lesson settings, lesson is set to be available from Nov. 1st until Nov. 10th
In the calendar the only highlighted date is Nov. 10th, in which we can see the double message you mention: Lesson opens; lesson closes... twice
Case 2 in lesson settings, lesson is set to be available from Nov. 7th until Nov. 10th
In the calendar the only highlighted date is Nov. 7th, and dates 8th through 10th are boxed (i.e. they display a top and bottom border). In the calendar, if you click on Nov. 7th, it takes you to the calendar day view, where you can see the details of lesson opening and closing.
Obviously, it should be considered as a bug that when a lesson's opening date is overdue we shoud get the doubly double message in the due date box. What we should really see is a single message saying lesson closes that's all.

Hi Joseph,
Even though I did try a lot, I couldn't replicate case #1 for me (and case #2 is obviously not a bug). Furthermore, after reading the code carefully I can't see where this bug could happen.
Are you sure this happens all the time? Is there anything special I need to do to activate the bug?

I have almost the same problem. One of my teachers has set up a lesson with the following parameters: one page only with no question, student can repeat, timed with 2 branches.
Today is November 15, the dates of the lesson are: opening November 17, close November 24.
The upcoming events block as well as the calendar are just showing lesson opens as well as lesson closes on March 24, with no mention of the opening date.
I have attached screenshots to indicate this. This seems to be a clear bug.
