[Odrl-version2] Dates and times in constraints

[Francis Cave]

It seems that W3C are pulling back from making time zone offsets mandatory:

This new draft of the W3C Note is currently out for comment.

XML Schema dateTime supports timezones, but doesn't mandate their use. The
W3C Note recommends that their use be mandatory.

 

Ok, I see know....

 

My view is the less we make mandatory in the Common Vocab, the more flexible
we are.

 

Mandatory options are best specified in Profiles, which have real-world use
cases.
