Description Jens 2008-07-23 16:23:44 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.0.98)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

I use online resources for my calendar where birthdays are shown lasting from 0:01 of a day until 24:00 or 0:00. These online resources thus show the birthday lasting the whole day, though when I import this into Kontact's calendar it is shown as if the birthday lasted two days because it interprets 24:00 or 0:00 as already belonging to the following day. Please remove this as it is quite annoying.

your on-line calendar needs to be fixed.
the last time in a day is 23:59:59

these birthdays should be changed to all-day events.

Well, I've already reported that to the admins and they haven't changed anything. It does seem to work in Outlook, though I know this doesn't say anything about it being standard complying. Will try to contact the admins again. Maybe they will change it after all.
