[Vtigercrm-developers] Repeated event and change of time zone

[Alan Lord]

vtiger developers...

Can you please confirm what is going to happen next week?

On the 25th October in the UK we switch from British Summer Time back to 
GMT (-1 hour).

 From the user's perspective what is going to happen to all the existing 
calendar entries stored in vtiger? Will they be different to what they 
were showing on the 24th October?

For example, say I create an event in my Calendar now for a meeting I 
have booked on the 27th October at 10:00am.

 From Manu's description it sounds to me like when I log into my vtiger 
on Monday the 26th, it is going to tell me my meeting is at 9:00am? Or 
does the user's timezone calculation take into account the local changes 
in daylight saving time?

Thanks

Alan
