Hello Laurent,

First of all thanks for the detail analysis on this issue.

Yes, I agreed that it will create a problem though calender meeting
because our database save the time as UTC format and web will render
based on browser's timezone. Here on .ics file timezone id id written on
file. So when we try to synchronize ics with meeting then it will surely
creates a problem (didn't check yet).

I appreciate your analysis to solve this issue and as per my "opinion"
the better way is "parse the timezone element and calculate the UTC time
".

So, currently I am confirming this as a "medium" importance and request to *experts* will look this issue.
More it could take some time to process, because as yoy said it's complicated and requires an expert resource to be available ;) .

Thanks for the reporting such kind of bug report!

Title:
  [trunk/6.1] Caldav and Timezones

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Invitations coming from Outlook or Lotus Notes and received on
  thunderbird can't be added to the synchronized calendar.

  In ics files, timezones are defined with an arbitrary timezone id 
  (and all the needed information like standard/daylight start, stop and offset)
  But it seems that OpenErp is waiting for a timezone id (TZID) which is a timezone name from the olson database to transform the ics to an Openerp calendar event.

  exemple timezone definition from http://www.kanzaki.com/docs/ical/vtimezone.html :
  BEGIN:VTIMEZONE
    TZID:US--Fictitious-Eastern
    LAST-MODIFIED:19870101T000000Z
    BEGIN:STANDARD
    DTSTART:19671029T020000
    RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYDAY=-1SU;BYMONTH=10
    TZOFFSETFROM:-0400
    TZOFFSETTO:-0500
    TZNAME:EST
    END:STANDARD

    BEGIN:DAYLIGHT
    DTSTART:19870405T020000
    RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYDAY=1SU;BYMONTH=4;UNTIL=19980404T070000Z
    TZOFFSETFROM:-0500
    TZOFFSETTO:-0400
    TZNAME:EDT
    END:DAYLIGHT
    END:VTIMEZONE
