Availability of time zone information unclear

Comment:

Sec. 7.10.6 contains the statement:

 
 This function returns a lexical xsd:date obtained as if by the following rules: the result of now() is converted to a local date based on the user agent time zone information. 
 
>From this statement it is unclear what kind of indicator the user agent should use to provide time zone information. The same unclearness is in sec.7.10.7.
