Hi Saikat,
As borup has mentioned, the VTIMEZONE component should be present.
AFAIK the timezone component is added only if its not present as part in
ical library http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/libical/zoneinfo/ . How are
you exporting it, just copying the calendar.ics file from ~/.evolution
or publishing the data somewhere in the web ? Please file a bug in
www.bugzilla.gnome.org providing the information and assign it to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
thanks, Chenthill.
