That sounds like a client misconfiguration then (or the client using an 
app that is not conforming to the standard).

DAViCal has a configuration setting to force the timezone, which is 
useful in situations where all your users are located in the same 
timezone.

Checking which timezone DAViCal is 'reporting', does not seem possible, 
as DAViCal (AFAIK) would only receive information and save that to its 
internal database. If you want to know in which timezone the DAViCal 
server is hosted, you can just check the server's timezone.

Checking in which timezone the events are stored internally, can be done 
using the Postgresql database. You can also use cURL to fetch an event 
from DAViCal, but I'm not sure if this returns raw information or 
processed information.
