    <thetext>On the specification of the time element[1], there is an error at the part it explains what happens when the pubdate attr. is not specified:

&quot;If the element does not need a date, *and the datetime attribute is present*, then the attribute&apos;s value must be a valid date or time string.

If the element does not need a date, *but the datetime attribute is not present*, then the element&apos;s textContent must be a valid date or time string in content.&quot;

Instead, it should be:

&quot;If the element does not need a date, *but the datetime attribute is present*, then the attribute&apos;s value must be a valid date or time string.

If the element does not need a date, *and the datetime attribute is not present*, then the element&apos;s textContent must be a valid date or time string in content.&quot;
