The way Entourage handles time zones actually makes sense to me and I like
it. But I have to admit that Julian is right on this quoted point above.
All-day events should be tied strictly to the date and not shift dates due
to time zone changes. I don't really consider it a bug, however. Rather, I
would call it an imperfect implementation. After all, the software is
working consistently...it's just not what one would expect.
