This issue was originally reported by Dave Peterson.


The definition of the dateTime value space does not reference a part

of ISO 8601 that defines dateTime values, only lexical

representations. The reference should be corrected, and the

recommendation should explain or fix the fuzziness and/or gaps in the

definitions referenced.


Dave P: "In 3.2.7 we assert that "the value space of

dateTime is the space of Conbinations of date and time of day values

as defined in [Clause] 5.4 of ISO 8601".  I notice also that

Clause 5 of 8601 is titled "Representations" and the first

sentence of Clause 5.4 asserts "a time-point can be identified

through a combination of date and time of the day representations

provided for in this International Standard". From this, I

conclude our reference is at best incorrect, since the referenced text

only addresses standardized lexical representations."


"It is clear from our discussions that we do not equate dateTime

values with lexical representations thereof; the mapping is not

1-1."

This requirement was discharged by the inclusion of the so-called

'seven-property model' in the first published Working Draft of XML

Schema 1.1.
