Hi Harri,

yes, only times in time stamps will be used in iCalendar export.   
Times in the headline
are too unpredictable.  The agenda uses them as a service because  
nothing really bad can happen.  But if you want consistency across  
applications, you should define times in a consistent way, i.e. in the  
stamp.

- Carsten
