Google Calendar API results depend incorrectly on the DST status #696

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
This is not a pure Python issue (it is also reported for other languages) but 
what seems to be an API bug.

I access Calendar via the API to get a list of events from "now" to a date in 
the future (using timeMin and timeMax as documented in 
https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/v3/reference/events/list?hl=j
a)

Depending on whether I am in the DST "season" or not I get different results 
for events which start within an hour:
 - if in DST (summer time) events within an hour from now are not listed
 - if not in DST (winter time) events within an hour are listed.

Another example of the same issue is listed here:

You are right, this is not library-specific. Note though please that calendar 
v3 API doesn't even use this library. I am closing this issue.
