x2v add serious bug with utf-8 (that technorati doesn't have) and now 
the hours are false, not buggy but simply false.

this:

<abbr class="dtend" title="2006-09-30T02:00:00+02:00">...</abbr>

becomes:

DTEND:20060930T020000Z

It's obviously false because:

Z is UTC
+02:00 is CEST

so 2am (CEST) can't be 2am (Z)

Thanks for you work
