            Bug ID: 4418
           Summary: add local/"floating" TZ support for time events which
                    do not contain TZID
           Product: Claws Mail (GTK3)
           Version: GIT
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows 10
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Plugins/vCalendar
          Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
          Reporter: pf at pfortin.com

Incoming ICS data which contains times (ie, DTSTART, DTEND,...) without TZID
displays the incorrect time.

eg,:
>DTSTART:20201207T140000
>DTEND:20201207T150000
displays as 9am to 10am in America/New_York timezone
BUT...  14:00EST is 19:00GMT, not 09:00GMT which indicates the displayed time
is off by 2*timezone_offset.
[Was filing this as an enhancement until I noticed the wrong offset from GMT.]

See local/"floating" in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5545
