4.4.4 The article element
http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/sections.html#the-article-element

The article element's description contains this note:

--
Note: The time element's pubdate attribute can be used to provide the publication date for an article element.
--
 
This note, while interesting, seems out of place? Also, the example given uses an incremental, as opposed to floating, time value. Pubdates are typically intended as floating:

  <h1>The Very First Rule of Life</h1>
  <p><time pubdate datetime="2009-10-09T14:28-08:00"></time></p>
