I'm having the same problem.... here in the eastern timezone all the
events in ics file are off by 4 hours.   looking at the code in
icalendar.py I see that it says that ical only exports in UTC.. has
anything in that reguard changed?  We're using version 0.11.3.  Also
when we changed the prefrences for 24hr to 12hr am/pm it has no effect
on the display or pdf.  do you have to restart the service or
something?  thanks Tom an Co.

While we're on the subject of discussing ICS files, I have been having a
bit of a play with this. I just copy the URL from "Open in iCal" and
paste it into Mozilla Sunbird's "Remote Server URL" box when adding a
remote calendar. Then, when you select "Reload remote calendars" it
re-gets the file from the SchoolTool server.

However... this is where I'm running into problems. It appears the ICS
file always outputs the time in UTC, no matter what I set it to in the
preferences and in Sunbird. I took Sunbird out of the picture and just
opened the ICS file on it's own. All timestamps are concluded with a Z
(meaning UTC) and the time is not translated back to a timezone specific
time.

Just to make it a bit clearer... I add an appointment at 9am local time,
and the ICS file records the appointment as being at 9am UTC.

Is there another timezone flag somewhere that needs to be set?

Richard
