[Bug 286567] Re: korganizer displays old appointments in UTC

[Tim Holy]

Oh, and on "the display issue is actually a different one," I agree this
observation does add some new elements---and I suspect you've already
diagnosed the problem better than I. However, at the risk of being
unnecessarily explicit: note that those evening appointments span 2 days
as measured by UTC (6pm-7:30pm America/Chicago is 2300-0030 UTC). So it
seems that the decision about which days to display the event on is
being made before the conversion to the local timezone. So this "new"
bug should be fixed by doing the timezone conversion first, I'd guess.

That said, I bet the double-display bug won't be triggered nearly as
often if the std.ics file is converted to use local timezones first. So
your script (once it works more broadly) should resolve this problem for
many people, even if there's a second problem that also needs to be
addressed.

Should I open a separate bug report for the double-display problem?

On scripts: also note http://chandlerproject.org/Projects/OlsonConvert.
However, when I try to run this script on my std.ics file, I get a "year
is out of range" error.
