Date/time types in Web IDL

Dear all,

 

My name is Chris Poppe, member of the W3C Media Annotations WG [1].
Currently we are using Web IDL for the definition of an API which should
give access to metadata of online multimedia resources. We are using the W3C
Editor's draft [2] and are currently looking to describe a property
returning a date (currently modeled as an attribute of type DOMString). 

 

I was wondering what the current opinion is of the Web Applications WG on if
(and how) Date/Time types will be included?

 

Kind regards,

Chris
