Hello, I currently implement the Mozilla Dutch Holiday calendar http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/caldata/DutchHolidays.ics on iPhones, iPads, Thunderbird with Lightning and Android-based telephones. That calendar contents show up in the iPhones, iPads and Thunderbirds. But a number of different apps on the Android telephone either show nothing or report an invalid date format used in that file. At first I assumed that there was some error in those apps. But one of the creators informed me that according to the specification as shown in http://www.kanzaki.com/docs/ical/date.html the date format in that Mozilla Holiday Calendar is not according to the spec. It contains dates in the format 4-1-2 instead of 4-2-2. Here is one I found. I did not try to find all of them.

DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:2010828 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:2010829

Will this be corrected?

Thank you for your help. Best regards

Hello Matt,

Now we are into territory I am unfamiliar with, so I looked around.

Looks like first file a bug. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ I suggest copying product etc from this bug. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=953257

seek advice there in exactly what to do, but it looks like uploading a corrected ICS is about it.

You might add the module owner to the bug https://wiki.mozilla.org/Modules/All#Calendar
