Description

X-WR-TIMEZONE is a VCALENDAR attribute that specifies a timezone (ie. America/Chicago) that the entire calendar will use. It is a proprietary extension to the ical spec, but its used by Apple's iCal application and Google Calendar among many others so we should probably think about supporting it. I've checked the source repositories for the Horde project (which is what we use for ical parsing) and they have not added support.

I'm attaching a sample ICS file here to show the format.
---------------
This is my concept on how to realize this feature:

- each event needs a timezone field, it can be filled automatically by the location assigned
- a default timezone needs to be configurable in TS and flexform for the output
- we keep storing & calculating in UTC and convert the time just for the output

This will effect the whole extension!

Do you thing it is really necessarily to add this field to every event?
I thing a timezone field per calendar is enough.
--------------------
Having a 2nd look at this request, I would say: it can be done by enhancing the horde parser.

I see a number of hours to be sponsored. How do you calaculate cost on those hours? Do you have a rate per hour? I have a client who may be interested in making this happen. Please advise.

Hi Chris,

we all have an hourly rate: mine is 50euro.
Get in touch with me on a private email, if you are interested.
