Hello, Lars, > On 2002-08-09 the W3C home page <URL:"http://www.w3c.org/"> under the > heading "MIT Scheduled Power Outage 9-10 August" contained a reference to > "11:00 p.m. UTC" as the beginning of the power outage. Considering that the > audience is global, the W3C wisely gave the time relative to the UTC[0] > timezone, but failed to use the ISO 8601 notation recommended elsewhere. Thank you for the report. I changed 11:00 p.m. to a 24 hour hour clock (23:00) rather than to 2002-08-09T23:20:00. So far W3C allows both ISO 8601 and a looser form, see [1]. Do you think strictly ISO is readable?
