Hi Eric,

If I understood David right, the "UTC" option is just an addition to the
already present options.
Thus, if you used e.g. "Europe/Berlin" before, you do not need to change
anything and in fact, you shouldn't see a difference.
However, if you face time shifts between org and the caldav calendar you
might try "UTC".

Hope that helps

Torsten
