[kronolith] Time Zone Issues

This sounds like a bug to me:

    User 1 is configured with EST timezone.
    User 2 is configured with CST timezone.

    User 2 creates event starting at 10am.
    User 2 shares calendar with User 1.

    User 1 views calendar and sees event as starting at 10am, but it really starts at 11am in User 1's timezone.

It makes no sense to display event times based upon the calendar owner's timezone, instead of the calendar viewer's timezone.

Actually, it's like the times are not being translated for timezones at all, because if an event is set up for, say 10am with the user's timezone set to EST, then the user changes his timezone to CST and re-displays the calendar, it still says the event is at 10am....but is should show it being at 9am.

Is there any server-wide configuration item causing this?  The hosting company I use says everything is set up properly from a server installation perspective...so either they're wrong, or these are actual Kronolith bugs.

Regards,
Frank
