As team contact for Schema, I'll note that (1) we'd need implementation support. I think that's actually doable. (2) we'd need clear spec. The HTML 5 spec is quite likely to be clear enough. (3) we'd need to know that the HTML 5 spec was stable in this area; (4) we'd need test cases added to the test suite. Frankly, an RFC822-style date lexical format would be of huge benefit too. Jeni, feel free to file a comment on Bugzilla against XSD 1.1 CR; I can't promise anything will happen, because the Schema WG has very few resources and is trying to move forward, and because going back to last call isn't on the cards, but I also won't rule it out. If new types were to be added in the next two weeks, I can also imagine us being able to put at least a placeholder into XQuery 3 and XPath 3 before Last Call for XQuery 3 (and the XDM and serialization and Functions and Operators), even if we didn't have all the details fleshed out. Good catch. Liam -- Liam Quin - XML Activity Lead, W3C, http://www.w3.org/People/Quin/ Pictures from old books: http://fromoldbooks.org/
