[Vtigercrm-developers] Google Calendar Sync - Sync Settings

[Richard Hills - Technologywise]

A little more, after a suggestion from another list member I have 
changed our calendar inside of google to be set to use GMT+0 (Iceland) 
and now events are synced properly.

 From a quick look at the google calendar sync code, it would seem that 
it expects google to be providing all times in UTC. Can we get some 
input from someone in the vtiger team regarding this?

Thanks
