Alarm pop-up boxes have the name of the event and the time and date of firing, as well as the word "floating."

The pop-up should have the name, location, and description of the event, as well as the date and time of the EVENT, not the ALARM.

Also, the word "floating" should be removed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create event with alarm pop-up
2.Read pop-up
3.

Actual Results:  
Alarm pop-up boxes have the name of the event and the time and date of firing, as well as the word "floating."

Expected Results:  
The pop-up should have the name, location, and description of the event, as well as the date and time of the EVENT, not the ALARM.

Also, the word "floating" should be removed.
This has changed in actual Sunbird builds. Only "Description" is missing in the alarm popup. Developers have to decide if this bug could be marked INVALID/WORKSFORME or they want to add "Description" to the alarm popup.

Please add "Description" to the alarm popup. The old Mozilla Calendar Extension shown they too. And I personally find it really useful. :)

Is this really a duplicate of 327992?

If I read the comments from "Stefan Sitter", this bug is about the DESCRIPTION property of the VEVENT/VTODO component and bug 327992 is about the DESCRIPTION property of the VALARM component.

So, can we use the patch from "Simon Paquet" to fix this bug?
