Actual Results:  
summary is not parsed properly, only first letters is displayed, the rest, after comma, was omited

summary should contains all text, from begining to the end of line

if you open this calendar in text editor you will see that ics is stored properly, so for me there is somehting wrong with parsing, however please confirm it

From ics file:
[...]
SUMMARY:Task (with date, without due date) causes 'Error: ad has no propert
 ies' in agenda-tree.js
[...]
As you can see this is invalid. Comma must be encoded as \,.

See Bug 274408 that should fix Bugzilla.

let me modify summary (put comma) so we can always verify this issue using this bug instead of looking for any which contains comma :)

right, when I export event with comma it is stored as \,

As said the iCalendar file created by Bugzilla is invalid. At the moment Sunbird is just following the rules dedicated by iCalendar standard. The problem has to be fixed on Bugzilla.
