    <p>France has a number of overseas departments which do not share a time zone with Metropolitan France. In this example, we'll look at three French time zones: <code>Europe/Paris</code>, <code>Pacific/Noumea</code> (the time zone used in New Caledonia), and <code>Pacific/Tahiti</code> (one of the timezones in French Polynesia).</p>

 <h3>Serializations</h3>
 
-<p class=issue>Some of the serializations in this section are not currently part of any standard. Work at the IETF on <a href="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sedate-datetime-extended/">SEDATE</a> might address this gap. Other standards, such as XMLSchema might be affected.</p>
+<p>Serialization of date/time values is necessary for interchange of these kinds of values in document formats and protocols. Which serialization to use depends on the application's <a href="#use-cases">use case</a> and available standards. Serializations that use time zone IDs instead of relying on offsets is RECOMMENDED.</p>
