Yeah, a long time ago I guessed that Google only really required the Java TimeZone ID, and since Ryan confirmed this on google groups I've switched away from using specific timezones. The Google recurrence bug still exists though (below). >> There are several classes of recurring events that are very common. >> Here's an example: >> >> RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTH=5;BYMONTHDAY=3 >> >> Google can not parse this.

I think I originally explained the problem incorrectly. The problem is that Google will fail to parse this rule at random times. Two days ago I posted on this thread about this bug in more detail.
