I have a draft spec at
http://hsivonen.iki.fi/html5-datatypes/

A snapshot of the reference implementation (which currently lacks the  
'language' datatype) is available for testing as part of my  
validation service:
http://hsivonen.iki.fi/validator/

The reference implementation just wraps the IRI library from Jena  
(pulled from CVS; the new version does not ship in a Jena release, yet).

Disclaimer: The datatype library has undergone *very* little testing.
