[Setup] Zope 2.8.5 with Plone 2.1.2 vcard adding 2 hrs to actual time

[Stefan H. Holek]

IIRC vcal is supposed to use GMT. This would explain the 2 hours diff  
as Rome (well, all of Europe ;-) is on DST currently. It may be the  
client's responsibility to convert to the local timezone, not the  
server's. Not a calendar expert though...
