           Summary: oops! in ·newDateTime·
           Product: XML Schema
           Version: 1.1 only
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Datatypes: XSD Part 2

In the description of ·newDateTime· one argument is described as:

   Tz   :       an ·optional· duration between -PT14H and PT14H, inclusive.

However, the values of timezone coordinates ("properties") in the 7-property
date/time model are counts of minutes, whereas durations are themselves pairs
of numbers.  We should say "an ·optional· integer between -840 and 840,
inclusive".
