There's a longstanding bug in the icalendar generator that has all multi-day
events ending a day early. Details attached; I still don't know how to fix
it. Anyone?

There is a bug in events2ics.xsl; an event lasting a number of days must
have its end date set to the date after it ends in order to be shown
correctly by a client. For example, EuroBSDCon starts on November 25th
and ends on November 27th, so should have an event entry like this:
BEGIN:VEVENT
SEQUENCE:1
SUMMARY:EuroBSDCon 2005
URL;VALUE=3DURI:http://2005.eurobsdcon.org/
LOCATION:University of Basel, Basel, Switzerland
DTSTART;VALUE=3DDATE:20051125
DTEND;VALUE=3DDATE:20051128
DESCRIPTION:The fourth annual European BSD Conference. It is...
END:VEVENT
However, the current implementation puts 20051127 in the date entry.
To fix this, I need to implement a "date-plus-one-day" template, and I
don't know how to do it.
If anyone does, please let me know. If the correct fix is a whole mess
of "if (month =3D=3D February && year !=3D leapyear && day =3D=3D 28) then =
{day++,
month++}" and so on then I can do that; just tell me to do it.
To clarify for anyone still willing to help, the relevant part of
events2ics.xsl is:
<!-- Generate iCalendar DTSTART and DTEND entries -->
<xsl:template name=3D"gen-ical-date-interval">
<xsl:param name=3D"startdate"/>
<xsl:param name=3D"enddate"/>
DTSTART;VALUE=3DDATE:<xsl:value-of select=3D"concat(startdate/year,
format-number(startdate/month, '00'),
format-number(startdate/day, '00'))"/>
<xsl:if test=3D"number(startdate/month) !=3D number(enddate/month) or
number(startdate/day) !=3D number(enddate/day) or
number(startdate/year) !=3D number(enddate/year)">
DTEND;VALUE=3DDATE:<xsl:value-of select=3D"concat(enddate/year,
format-number(enddate/month, '00'),
format-number(enddate/day, '00'))"/>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
I need to replace this template with:
<!-- Generate iCalendar DTSTART and DTEND entries -->
<xsl:template name=3D"gen-ical-date-interval">
<xsl:param name=3D"startdate"/>
<xsl:param name=3D"enddate"/>
DTSTART;VALUE=3DDATE:<xsl:value-of select=3D"concat(startdate/year,
format-number(startdate/month, '00'),
format-number(startdate/day, '00'))"/>
<xsl:if test=3D"number(startdate/month) !=3D number(enddate/month) or
number(startdate/day) !=3D number(enddate/day) or
number(startdate/year) !=3D number(enddate/year)">
DTEND;VALUE=3DDATE:<xsl:call-template select=3D"date-plus-one-day">
<xsl:with-param value=3D"enddate" />
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
and I need help writing the "date-plus-one-day" template.
Cheers,
Ceri
