Description

Tested on https://dev.tiki.org

Israel is now UTC+3
I entered 22h for meeting time.
Linux timestamp is correct : 1381518000 = Your time zone: 11 October 2013 22:00:00 GMT+3

However the plugin show me (my user pref are : Asia/Jerusalem UTC+2) on the page : 11 Oct. 13 21:00 IST (not so long ago it show IDT).

Seems Tiki, or the plugin are trying to tell me that Israel is UTC+2 and that is wrong.

If I switch my user preference to Site Default, it shows : 11 Oct. 13 21:00 CEST.
if i switch to London UTC+0, it shows : 11 Oct. 13 20:00 BST

Addition: I added date to convene i created yesterday. Some show IDT some show IST.
They should show the same.
I check the linux timestamp they all are 22:00 (GMT+3) but they show 21:00 on the tiki page.

Workaround

A workaround is described at How to organize an online meeting and consists on relying on timeanddate.com

Ex.:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20131002T1800


This is not a proper workaround for a Tiki bug.
It is the "don't use the plugin" solution (good to solve meeting problem, not to solve the plugin problem).
