Tom et al

I've been looking at the DCMES changes docs and re-read an email
(http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A2=ind0507&L=dc-date&T=0&P=4025)
from the DC-Date working group proposing a new comment for Date. That
proposed text is different from the text I recently proposed. I'm thinking
that perhaps we need to use this version, since we did ask the Date WG to
draft it. This is what the WG agreed (11-0):

"Typically, Date will be associated with the creation or availability of
the resource. A date value may be a single date or a date range. Date
values may express temporal information at any level of granularity
(including time). Recommended best practice for encoding the date value
is to supply an unambiguous representation of the single date or date
range using a widely-recognized syntax (e.g., YYYY-MM-DD for a single
date; YYYY-MM-DD/YYYY-MM-DD for a date range; YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM to
specify a single date and time down to the minute)."

The Madrid meeting notes say that we agreed to adopt this new comment from
the WG so I'm proposing to replace the version that currently exists in the
DCMES changes document with the version above.

Pete, does this version satisfy your concern about the wording?

cheers
Andrew

All,

Here is a draft agenda for discussion on today's telecon.

Corrections and additions welcome.  Shepherds should please
confirm to me that my summary is accurate and suggest documents
to include (or exclude) from the meeting packet.

In the call today, I would like to determine whether the
topics are well-clustered and whether the times allotted
are realistic.

Tom
