(Get the code!)
i know it sounds like i'm arguing semantics, but in this case semantics are important. the reason that i want to make the distinction clear is because this bug is mirrored upstream, and the Evolution maintainers need to know that there's actually no problem with their code. in fact, they should NOT change how the command works between major releases (if at all) because doing so would break the existing valid contract.
to further explain, evolution IS opening the the date that was specified. the problem is that gnome-panel is telling evolution to open the wrong date. to better understand this, you need to realize that evolution is not opening a DAY, but rather a POINT IN TIME. the point in time 8 June 00:00 GMT is actually 7 June 20:00 for those in EDT.
