I am using 2004091012-cal on XP under firebird.  vCalendar files exported have
one \r too many.  Here is the output of od -xa of one such file:

This breaks rfc2445 and stops other calendar apps such as korganizer from
recognising the file.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Thanks for your report.
I am unable to reproduce this with 20041008-cal

This sounds like Bug 259956, particularly the \r\r\n problem.  A fix was checked
in for that bug on sept 17, after the 20040907 version.  Do you still see the
problem in later builds?

there is a test build for windows dated 20041008 in
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/xpi/windows/
The problem is not exhibited in the 20041008 build.
