Hi,

Org agenda has its own processing of sexps, so its views are correct.
The exporter, however, uses icalendar.el for creating the iCal data.
Date processing there in `icalendar--convert-float-to-ical' is
somewhat arbitrary as per the docstring:

  "Convert float diary entry to iCalendar format -- partially unsupport=
ed!

  FIXME! DAY from diary-float yet unimplemented.

As far as the exported date is concerned, it'll always be today's
date as per this comment further down:

  ;;Start today (yes this is an arbitrary choice):

So, bug-gnu-emacs would be the list to post this issue to.

Regards

Thomas
