Hi Kanzaki-san, > @2012-09-27 14:02 +0900: > Hello, > > The validator seems to check <time> element value (and its datetime > attribute value) based on HTML5 "Dates and times microsyntax" [1], > resulting year only (YYYY) or year-month (YYYY-MM) invalid. e.g. > > <time>2012</time> > <time datetime="2012-04">April 2012</time> > > However, HTML5 spec explicitly allows these values (and more) for time > element [2].

Sorry about that -- I'll try to get it fixed soon. We've got a bit of a backlog of validator issues like this at the moment. Hopefully can get most of them fixed over the next few weeks. --Mike -- Michael[tm] Smith http://people.w3.org/mike
