Represent month name in XML

Are there any guideline for representing month name in XML? (using XML
schema)

Currently I just use string

e.g.

<report month="Sep" ...

Is it okay or any suggestion?

Thanks.

No, because that's going to depend on what language you're working in
(plus, as your example shows, whether you want to abbreviate it and what
set of abbreviations you want to use if so). That really isn't something
which can be standardized across applications.

The schema-standard way to signify a particular month is the gMonth
datatype: http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#gMonth
