Re: gnome-pim-conduits and appointment times

[Dano Carroll <dano zilker net>]

Hey,

I had posted the patch to fix this problem over a year ago. Unfortunately, 
it seems to have been lost twice. Here it is again. Now I haven't actually 
used the pim conduits in some time, so I don't know if the patch works 
with the current release, caveat emptor. It is really trivial so it should 
be easy to fix the current release.
