Subject: Re: time zones
Here are 2 ways to model it as discussed on the call today..
Mike - Based on what you have discovered for time zone in the range of +-
nn:45, Pattern might be better in the long run..
Using Pattern facet
<!-- valid values UTC, UTC+n, UTC+nn UTC+nn:nn -->
<!-- valid values UTC, UTC-n, UTC-nn UTC-nn:nn -->
Pros : Allows new times zones to be added without modification to spec as
it just specifies the format.. Schema validation checks the format is
valid , explicit checking for values is left to Implementation code.
Explicit enumeration : - Strict checking at schema level. Validation
error reported by schema. Any time a new time zone if added , spec and
schema would require modification.
<!-- time zone list from
http://wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_zone#Time_zone_as_offsets_from_UTC -->

Subject: time zones
Hey Suman,
I just googled, and this page says there are UTC-5:45 and UTC-12:45 time
zones. That was news to me. I thought they were all :00 or :30.
