can you not determine if your desired time is in the daylight saving tim eperiod 
and adjust it as needed before you do the first posting to the calendar? i was 
going to suggest that yesterday when i first read of your plight but i wanted to 
wait and see what others might suggest...

so basically:

1. you decide your time and date...
2. check if it is within the daylight saving time period for your area...
2a. if #2 is yes, adjust the time as needed...
2b. if #2 is no, leave the time as originally set...
3. publish the appointment/event in the calendar...
4. done ;)
