Re: [ubl-ndrsc] xsd:gYearMonth as basis of a new datatype for credit card expiry date?

Failing acceptance of my 
former suggestion ("kludgy"?), how about

 

<xsd:simpleType 
name="expiryDate">

   <xsd:restriction 
base="xsd:string">

      <xsd:pattern 
value="([0-3][0-9]/\)?[0-1][0-2]/\[0-9]{2}"/>

   </xsd:restriction 
base="xsd:string">

</xsd:simpleType 
name="expiryDate">

 

where ([0-3][0-9]/\)?[0-1][0-2]/\[0-9]{2} is

either    DD/MM/YY    (the DD/ is optional 
depending on the card)

or         MM/YY

 

Is this exactly how it would appear in the UBL DataType Schema?

 

Thanks

 

Steve

Just a quick question for LCSC 
  modelling.

  
 

  
Would it be feasible to use xsd:gYearMonth as the base for a new 
  DataType (in the CCTS sense) to

  
cater for MM/YY (albeit YYYY-MM in ISO short date 
  format) as used with Credit Card expiry dates?
