Events in DST are shown one hour earlier than expected

See original GitHub issue

Version

1.8.0 | Tue Nov 06 2018

Development Environment

Chrome, MacOS

Current Behavior

Events that are created now for April 2019 are shown 1 hour before their actual date. E.g. an event starting Wed Apr 10 2019 12:00:00 GMT+0200 is shown in calendar at 11 AM.

Expected Behavior

The event above should be displayed at 12PM. There seems to be an issue with the transition to DST Summer Time?

ok for future reference, this is what I did and it seems to work pretty nicely:

// => in Feb. it's -60, in April -120 (for Europe/Berlin)
currentZone = moment().zone()

// in my case, offset is either -60, 0 or +60
offset = currentZone - moment(event.start).zone()

correctedStart = moment(event.start).add(offset, 'minutes')
correctedEnd = moment(event.end).add(offset, 'minutes')

Even drag and drop still seems to work. Maybe this code can even help with a possible fix for the issue?
