The date:date-time function returns the current date and time as a date/time string. The date/time string that's returned must be a string in the format defined as the lexical representation of xs:dateTime in [3.2.7 dateTime] of [XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes].

The date/time format is basically CCYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss, although implementers should consult [XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes] and [ISO 8601] for details.

The date/time string format must include a time zone, either a Z to indicate Coordinated Universal Time or a + or - followed by the difference between the difference from UTC represented as hh:mm.
