[missing-sync-pocketpc-talk] repeating events shifted one day

I can duplicate by creating all day, repeating events in iCal (Mac OS X 
10.3.5, iSync 1.5, iCal 1.5.1, Missing Sync 1.0.4, GMT+1 time zone on 
both handheld and Mac). However, if I create the same event type on the 
handheld, that event type seems to stay put after multiple syncs. I 
offer that as the best work around. So, if you need to enter a 
repeating, all day event, create it on the handheld and not iCal. Timed 
repeating events are not shifting a day, so you can enter those on 
either the handheld or iCal.

I apologize for this inconvenience. We are aware of the problem and are 
working on a fix. Repeat events have been the trickiest type of events 
to synchronize correctly. We are working on an update that we believe 
will improve the accuracy of synchronization and improve overall sync 
speed. I can't yet give an accurate estimate of when this new release 
will be available. Until, then I hope you find the above work around 
useful.
