Robert Weir  commented on OIC-34:
---------------------------------

How about require that the value is an xsd:duration?  That then aligns with ISO 8601 time durations.

>  Section 3.3.2.17 of http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/33633/OpenDocument-v1.2-part1-cd03.odt
> defines <meta:editing-duration> Metadata as an element with a value that conforms to section 3.2.6 of the xmlschema-2 Spezifikation.

> I interpret the meaning of that value as the total accumulated time during which the document was being edited. Since there can be any
> number of gaps since the document was created where the document was not edited and which would thus not contribute to this total editing time a
> value here that would contain subelements specified as number of years or months does IMHO not make sense although it would be allowed by
> xmlschema-2 section 3.2.6. Number of years and months subelements in such a value being present would only make sense if we would have a
> value for some kind of elapsed time without non counted gaps in between which is not the case here.
