Greetings. I am reporting this here for a Fedora user. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=548006 for their full bug report. Basically they are importing an ical file that contains appointments made in another timezone. "SUMMARY:Something DESCRIPTION:When: Thursday\, October 02\, 2008 11:00 AM-12:00 PM (GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada).\nWhere: This should be updated to the local TZ instead of just setting it at 11 AM - 12 AM in my timezone." Would it be possible to add this support? Thanks, and happy to provide more info or ask the reporter...
Description is just text. Orage does not understand that some part of that text is actually a time. Orage can convert and process time items like DTSTART etc. but scanning the text for date/time is too much. In other words the contents of description is just treated as plain text without any conversions. It would be possible to create special "fields" for this like <&DATE>, but no other calendars would understand those so I guess it would not help here. (And the example is not even a time, but time interval.) Sorry, far too complex to implement.
