Calendar pattern time zone symbol fallback behaviour
Added by Steve Hanson about 9 years ago
It is not sufficient in the spec just to list the symbols and describe them in the current simple way, as there is often a fallback behaviour if a particular symbol does not have a meaning in a particular time zone.

Changes required to section 13.11.1:
1) Sentence "The pattern is derived from the ICU SimpleDatetimeFormat class described here: [ICUCalForm]" should append "which uses symbols defined by [UnicodeLDML]"
2) A note should be added at the foot of the calendar pattern symbol table which says:
"If a time zone symbol is not available for a particular time zone, a fallback may be used, as defined in [ICUCalForm]."

Change as described, but clarify point 2 with "When unparsing..."
"When unparsing, if a time zone symbol is not available for a particular time zone, a fallback may be used, as defined in [ICUCalForm]."

New erratum 4.4 in experience document 1.

changes in draft-gwdrp-dfdl-v1.0.4-r05.docx
The errata doc v1.1 says to add a footnote to the table. I considered this and decided a footnote number hanging on a table was not prominent enough, so I simply added the suggested sentence to the prose in an appropriate spot. (Change bars will show where.)
