Combined Date and Time Representations
A single point in time can be represented by concatenating: a complete date expression, the letter T as a delimiter, and a valid time expression. For example "2007-04-05T14:30".
Either basic or extended formats may be used, but both date and time must use the same format. The date expression may be calendar, week, or ordinal, and must use a complete representation. The time expression may use reduced accuracy. It is permitted to omit the 'T' character by mutual agreement.
