Description Sandy Gao 2005-09-07 20:41:06 UTC 
There appears to be a discrepancy between the lexical representation of gMonth 
in the "XML Schema: Datatypes" recommendation and the truncated representation 
of a month described in 5.2.1.3 of ISO 8601:1988. The former indicates that the 
lexical representation is "--MM--", while the latter specifies the truncated 
representation as "--MM".
