When working with real date and time values, consider using a separate field for time zone, perhaps using IANA time zone IDs. and @reference our WG-Note "Working with Time Zones". At this location: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/single-page.html#global-dates-and-times (section 2.5.5.6) But we feel that offsets are insufficient for many time-related operations and would like support for TZIDs 75258 1 erika.doyle 2012-10-03 21:20:30 +0000 Moving this to HTML.next as we work to lock down HTML5.0 for CR. 81699 2 robin 2013-01-21 15:58:52 +0000 Mass move to "HTML WG" 81817 3 robin 2013-01-21 16:01:38 +0000 Mass move to "HTML WG" 125952 4 arronei 2016-04-20 18:21:24 +0000 HTML5.1 Bugzilla Bug Triage: This bug constitutes a request for a new feature of HTML. Our current guidelines, rather than track such requests as bugs or issues, is to create a proposal for the desired behavior, or at least a sketch of what is wanted (much of which is probably contained in this bug), and start the discussion/proposal in the WICG (https://www.w3.org/community/wicg/). As your idea gains interest and momentum, it may be brought back into HTML through the Intent to Migrate process (https://wicg.github.io/admin/intent-to-migrate.html).
