When adding a new recurrent event using the Calendar API, the result is an event with the start and end time shifted. When updating the event to correct time values, it seems this new data is ignored and the already shifted time shi shifted down once again. Here is the xml request to add an event:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:gd="http:// schemas.google.com/g/2005"> <gd:recurrence>DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Chisinau:20070122T150233 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Chisinau:20070122T160544 RRULE:FREQ=DAILY </gd:recurrence><gd:where valueString="fsdfasdf" /> <gd:visibility value="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#event.default" /

<title type="text">DDDDDDD</title> <category term="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#event" scheme="http:// schemas.google.com/g/2005" /> <content type="text" >asdfsdfxxcvvzz</content> <gd:who rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#event.attendee' valueString='vas...@gmail.com' email='vas...@gmail.com' > <gd:attendeeStatus value='http://schemas.google.com/g/ 2005#event.invited' ></gd:attendeeStatus> </gd:who> <gd:who rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#event.organizer' valueString='puta...@gmail.com' email='puta...@gmail.com' > <gd:attendeeStatus value='http://schemas.google.com/g/ 2005#event.accepted' ></gd:attendeeStatus> </gd:who> </entry>

And this is the answer from google:

As you can see, the DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Chisinau:20070122T140233 is shifted one hour down. So is the DTEND too. Is there something missing in the request or malformed that causes this behavior ? Thanks.
