start time for new events is current hour so this should be also changed for consistency (not sure if there is already bug for this)

I don't quite understand this bug. You say the start time should be the next full hour. Why? I would probably expect the start time being the date of the email.

Przemyslaw is right, the behavior of the start date is not quite consistent:

Create...
* an event via new event button or unifinder: Current hour, 0 minutes
* a task via new task button: Current hour and minute
* an event or task via dragndrop from an email: Current hour and minute.
* an event via views: Time in view (correct)


Is this really a blocker for 0.8 ?

Comment 3

[Simon Paquet [:sipaq]]

I agree with Philipp, that this is not an 0.8 blocker. Moving back to nomination so that Daniel can reconsider.

->Philipp Kewisch: Take a look at http://wiki.mozilla.org/Calendar:SMB_Event_Dialog#Menu:_File -> New/Event: Start time has to be on the next full hour. E.g. it is 9:40am the preselected time has to be 10:00am. (specification author is Christian Jansen)

Bug 413516 contains changes to make every above noted item creation method use the "next full hour" method. Therefore this bug can be closed.
