We changed xs:dateTime to a complex type to allow for the use of either date without time (xs:date) or date and time (xs:dateTime). That data type is only used for a few elements (that are dates) and those elements are only found in the Event and Object schemas. It wasn't needed in Agent or Rights. The former has no dates and the only date in the latter is defined with data type xs:date (i.e. without the time), and the choice of date or date+time isn't needed. The PREMIS container (PREMIS-v1-1.xsd) only references the separate schemas. It was designed as an optional wrapper. Since it isn't required to use the container schema, and we've allowed for using the separate schemas by themselves, I don't expect we'd want to do this because it would force you to always use the PREMIS schema. I suppose your Oxygen is choking because the same data type is defined in 2 schemas. Another way around it might be to name them differently in each schema, i.e. objectDateType and eventDateType or something like that. Or does anyone else have any other alternative?
