195970 - all calendar events are offset by 8 hours (my offset from GMT) so my 11 AM events are listed as starting at 7 PM

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 188095

(Calendar :: Internal Components, defect)

Description

[paul beard]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030304
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030304

The summary should have most of the info. When I import events into calendar
from an .ics file, the times are offset by my GMT offset, so that events that
were to start at 11 AM now show up at 7 PM. Add to this that recurring events
are not parsed as recurring events, but as discrete single events, and it's a mess. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. import a file created in some other application (Corporate Time, iCal) 
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Look at when the events are supposed to start and end. 

Expected Results:  
They should keep their original times.
