When exporting a calendar via calendar/ical.php, the resulting 'file' (or rather stream) does not contain any timezone information at all. The resulting iCalendar-format file should contain a VTIMEZONE section as well as TZID's with the start times of a VEVENT. This helps other programs (like Apple's iCal which I use) to properly display the entries.

Corresponding source code
I just read through RFC 2445, section 4.2.19 deals with the TZID for events.
<quote>
The parameter MUST be specified on properties with a DATE-TIME value if the DATE-TIME is not either a UTC or a "floating" time.
</quote>
As all events in the phpgroupware calendar are stored as UTC this is not needed.
Section 4.3.5 deals with UTC time. Using current stable CVS I checked and all events comply with the following requirement
<quote>
FORM #2: DATE WITH UTC TIME
The date with UTC time, or absolute time, is identified by a LATIN CAPITAL LETTER Z suffix character (US-ASCII decimal 90), the UTC designator, appended to the time value. For example, the following represents January 19, 1998, at 0700 UTC:
DTSTART:19980119T070000Z
