[Bug 5309] [XSLT 2.0] format-dateTime() component specified "z"

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5309

           Summary: [XSLT 2.0] format-dateTime() component specified "z"
           Product: XPath / XQuery / XSLFO / XSLT
           Version: Recommendation
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: XSLT 2.0
        AssignedTo: mike@saxonica.com

We publish inconsistent examples for the expected output from component
specifier "z". Both "GMT+1" and "GMT+02:00" are suggested as possible output.
We need to give clearer guidance as to what is expected (or what degrees of
freedom are available). Perhaps the choice between the two example formats
should depend on the rest of the format specifier.

This bug is raised in (inexcusably delayed!) response to internal bug 709
raised against test case dateformat015. See
