Description Fritz Heinrichmeyer 2007-03-29 09:47:13 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

A calendar file created by korganizer is confused by one hour after being
edited by lightning and after the daylight saving shift in europe.

Past events shifted by one hour backwards. Future events shifted 2 hours. I dont know whether to blame korganizer or lightning, but i am afraid one of them does not conserve the MEANING of a date time. 

The meaning for humans has to be conserved in a calendar, not the time in a "cosmic" sense. I hope it is considered a bug that a meeting time in winter of lets say 9 pm is displayed in spring as 8 pm. This is wrong.

Conserving the meaning should have the consequence of having always the same printed representation of hours.

I filed this bug report also on lightning.
