I don't think there is any assumption that [,sss] means there are no microseconds. The field is just called 'fractional_second' and it's a Real (i.e. a float). We just used 'sss' as an arbitrary indicator of fractional seconds (how many 's' do you want ;-)

Hi,

I have a requirement to capture timeseries data which happens at 250 microseconds – that is 0.000250 seconds.

While many programming languages, and the ISO8601 spec, supports this openEHR RM <http://www.openehr.org/releases/RM/latest/docs/support/support.html#_iso8601_time_class> seems to be constrained to milliseconds:

hh:mm:ss[,sss][Z | ±hh[mm]]

Any particular reason we dump microseconds? If not can we add this capability – I think it won’t break any existing code (I hope!)

Cheers,
