That's what we do now. I just merge Yongsheng's patch.

That is a potential gap in SyncEvolution: it doesn't have "alarm
descriptions" and thus creates/stores slightly invalid iCalendar 2.0
VALARMs without the obligatory DESCRIPTION.

I'm not sure whether this really is a problem in practice. Evolution
doesn't seem to care I assume, otherwise we would expect to have had bug
reports about it before, which is not the case.

I'm not sure whether the problem is solved entirely with Mobical.net,
though. In a simple, relative alarm (15 minutes before event), this was
sent to the server:

BEGIN:VCALENDAR

DAYLIGHT;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:TRUE;+02;20110327T010000Z;20101031T010000Z;;freeassociation.sourceforge.net;Tzfile;Europe;Berlin

END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR

This came back:

No alarm. Yongsheng, can you investigate further?
