I have just committed your patch in a slightly modified version that acts only on dates prior to 1900 (but after 1000), feeling that it would be too risky to convert all dates to DATE-TIME when DATE is a valid value according to the spec. Thank you for your contribution to DAViCal! It will be released in the upcoming version 1.1.4. Florian
