as i mentioned in the bug i filed, a safe kludge is to always use 12 noon GMT:
evolution calendar:///?startdate=20060608T120000 since (virtually) no time zone is more than 12 hours away from GMT, this will force evolution to start on the specified date, regardless of time zone. the only people this will not work for are those few in Tonga during their DST and some parts of Kiribati. since the people of Tonga and Kiribati are primitive and their time is mostly preocupied with catching enough fish to eat, they probably won't mind if Ubuntu doesn't open the correct date in Evolution some of the time. -- Clicking on date in calendar applet open previous date in Evolution https://launchpad.net/bugs/42115 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
