Dealing with TIme.zone dates about icalendar HOT 6 CLOSED

Unfortunately, you must use .to_datetime if you wish to have a date included. RFC-2445 allows for Time types, that only include the time, without a date. Thus, we use the Time class for times, Date for just dates, and DateTime for output that should include both the date and time.

Thanks Ryan, that makes sense. Is this in the documentation somewhere, and
if not, would it be a good idea to add it? :)

It doesn't look like it is documented anywhere. I just recently took over this project and haven't had as much time to work on it as I'd like.

Documentation help would be fantastic, I just enabled the wiki for the project so we can start building some better use instructions.

Hi Ryan, that's all good. I completely understand what that's like :)

I just went to try and add a page in the wiki but it just doesn't load.
Perhaps you have to add the first page? :)

I created a page for Time issues here: https://github.com/icalendar/icalendar/wiki/Times,-Dates,-and-DateTimes let me know if you still can't edit it.

Thanks Ryan, I've updated that page. I hope it's clear enough. I wanted to
provide a bit of an extra hint about the Time to DateTime conversion
requirement in case people don't get the subtlety.

Have a great day!
