Description Tantek Çelik 2010-08-31 12:10:20 CEST

The ins and del elements' datetime attribute is now a valid date string with **optional** time. (emphasis added).

http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/edits.html#attr-mod-datetime

This was changed in the spec as of August 24th

http://lists.whatwg.org/htdig.cgi/whatwg-whatwg.org/2010-August/028113.html

as the spec used to require a date and time in the ins and del elements' datetime attribute.

Thanks for the bug report. This is now fixed in the sources, though not yet deployed at validator.nu -- but in the mean time you can test it here:
