[Bug 42115] Re: Clicking on date in calendar applet open previous date in Evolution

[joehill]

This is probably a workable hack for the moment (that is, it's better
than leaving it the way it is).

But I still am at a loss as to why a calendar program that helps me
organize my appointments in my local time and correctly reminds me of
them insists on receiving GMT arguments and has no way to specify a date
in my local time zone (or just a plain date without a time zone--after
all, it's opening the whole day, not a time).  I don't think such hacks
should be necessary.

Not having a way to specify a date according to the user's time zone is
a bug.  Evolution is designed to help people organize their daily tasks
wherever they may live.  Maybe this is an upstream issue that we have to
hack around here, but I at least want to recognize that it's a bug.  By
the way, the Tongans I've known are not primitive and are as interested
in using computers and organizing their schedules as I am, so I don't
buy the idea that they should be excluded because of their time zone.
