Perhaps, but the point I was trying to make isn't about the W3C ignoring
IETF work or vice-versa.  A "one size fits all" specification isn't likely
to meet everyone's needs, and the situation with 2445 and XML Schema is just
one example of a situation where the given size didn't fit someone for some
reason.  The point I was trying to make is that the timestamps document
seems to provide a reasonable compromise between being too restrictive and
too permissive.
