I wonder if the W3C XML Schema recommendation is conform to ISO 8601 on the issue of the length of a day. W3C XML Schema: -------------- 3.2.9 date [Definition:] date represents a calendar date. The ·value space· of date is the set of Gregorian calendar dates as defined in § 5.2.1 of [ISO 8601]. Specifically, it is a set of one-day long, non-periodic instances e.g. lexical 1999-10-26 to represent the calendar date 1999-10-26, independent of how many hours this day has. ISO 8601: -------- § 5.2.1 doesn't say what a "date" is, but this is defined in the "3 Terms and definition": 3.3 date, calendar: A particuliar day of the calendar year and 3.5 day: A period of 24 hours starting at 0000 and ending at 2400 Eric -- Rendez-vous ą Paris pour le Forum XML. http://www.technoforum.fr/Pages/forumXML01/index.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric van der Vlist http://xmlfr.org http://dyomedea.com http://xsltunit.org http://4xt.org http://examplotron.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------
