Calendar 2.0 time zones change when exporting to Google Calendar
Hi
I appreciate the new calendar has just been activated, and by the sounds of things those involved worked some overtime in to the night to get it finished! But, just in case this isn't already known, when I import the new calendar in to Google Calendar I have a problem with time zones. Example:
lds.org calendar time zone on all locations throughout the Stake set to Europe/London.
Activity listed on December 10, 5pm on lds.org's calendar.
On Google Calendar the same event is listed as 10am. The time zone for the imported calendar is set to GMT by default in my Google Calendar.
I'm using the new Google Calendar link as provided in the Sync section. Using the old work around link (https://cdev.lds.org/phpstack/ldscalendar.php/etc...) it is providing the correct time of 5pm as in the example above.
Any ideas?

Do you know if the time zone has been saved for the resources involved as required for V2? That might have something to do with it. But if so, it makes me wonder what will happen to events that do not use a resource?

update: I previously said the old https://cdev.lds.org/phpstack/ldscalendar.php/etc... link seemed to stop the time zone problems, but it seems as of today it now has the same problem as the new links.
Any update on this yet?

Same issue
I am seeing the same issue. I have assured that the time zones are correct for each of the locations. The calendar looks great, with correct time, on LDS.org but when I bring it into Google it is showing the GMT time zone.
