--- Comment #2 from C. M. Sperberg-McQueen <cmsmcq@w3.org>  2008-09-09 15:20:00 ---
A wording proposal intended to resolve this issue, and also issue 4642, has 
been prepared by the editors and was adopted by the Working Group on 
5 September.

  http://www.w3.org/XML/Group/2004/06/xmlschema-2/datatypes.b4642.html

As noted in the proposal (under "Status of this document"), most occurrences
of "time zone" are changed to "time zone offset", a reference to the i18n 
WG Note is added, and a couple of erroneous notes about the indeterminacy
of time zone recovery in 1.0 and 1.1 have been dropped.

Felix, if you could report this disposition to the i18n WG and indicate
whether the i18n WG is content (by closing the issue) or not content
(by reopening it) with the resolution of the issue, we would be grateful.
If we don't hear otherwise in the next two weeks, we will assume (not
unmindful of our self-interest) that the i18n WG is content with the 
resolution.
