Yes, at the moment we don't handle times with an explicitly given timezone 
different than UTC. If there is no option to generate the files with UTC, we 
won't be able to read them correctly. Maybe it would work to set the timezone 
in KOrganizer to UTC, then the times will be taken as they are written to the 
file.

After 3.2 we will switch to a newer libical version which is supposed to have 
more complete timezone handling.
