    Description

      Good morning,

      when I import an ics file from office 365 into a moodle calendar. the event is imported without any error but when I check the meeting, it start always at 00:00.

      here is an example for the dtstart in the ics file.
      DTSTART;TZID=Romance Standard Time:20141103T153000
      DTEND;TZID=Romance Standard Time:20141103T160000

      if you replace the romance standard by one of the region in https://download.moodle.org/timezone/ it's working.
      you can find the windows mapping here :
