No. Your event had: <gd:when startTime="2005-04-03T03:00:00-05:00" endTime="2005-04-03T03:01:00-04:00"></gd:when> 1) The DST transition does not occur at 3:00 in the way that you mean. The local clock goes from 1:59:59 to 3:00:00 at the advancement of the clock and from 1:59:59 to 1:00:00 at it's return in most North American and European systems. The local time 3:01 is always 1 minute after 3:00 in these systems. 2) You aren't giving your times in a consistent local time representation. The start time is in the UTC-5 zone and the end time is in the UTC-4 zone. 3) There is no daylight saving time transition in UTC. You are specifying your times relative to UTC, so as I wrote before your start time at 03:00:00-05:00 (08:00:00 UTC) is 59 minutes after 03:01:00-04:00 (07:01:00 UTC). I believe that what you want is: <gd:when startTime="2005-04-03T01:59:00-05:00" endTime="2005-04-03T03:00:00-04:00"></gd:when> which steps from 06:59:00 to 07:00:00 UTC, or even <gd:when startTime="2005-04-03T01:59:59-05:00" endTime="2005-04-03T03:00:00-04:00"></gd:when> I've just created an event with that gd:when and it visually spans 1 entire hour in the UI.
