Subject: [iCalendar-devel] Escape carriage returns (\r)?
Message-ID: <455d64770803031438i777c5609w9abaa15ffac3b990@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,
    I was trying to get Google Calendar to import a gem-generated file
with no luck (it kept giving me the unhelpful message "parse error,"
even though http://severinghaus.org/projects/icv/ accepted the file as
valid). After a bunch of screwing around, I changed line 148 of
component.rb to include a .gsub("\r", "\\r"), which fixed the problem.
It seems like line 158 might also want the same...is this correct?

Subject: [iCalendar-devel] PATCH: Timezone-specific bug in tests
Message-ID: <2b27183e0803211134h50bfc76l4fa00297e32acbfa@mail.gmail.com>

All,
When I run "rake test" with my computer set to the -5 (EST) timezone,
I always see the conversions_test.rb fail.  It's because the line
setting the x_time_of_day is inputing a simple Time.at(123456), and
then the sample ICS file has the output set to the +2 timezone.

I've attached a minor patch against 1.0.2 that makes the timezone
explicit in the test, allowing it to run anywhere in the world.

Hope this helps someone,
Larry
