- The name I've chosen ("DT::TZ::TAI") has some problems: DateTime::TimeZone does not recognize it, as it has a one-part name "TAI". If this is to work:
$dt = DateTime->now( timezone => "TAI" );
instead of
$dt = DateTime->now( timezone => DateTime::TimeZone::TAI->new() );
either DT::TimeZone has to be changed, or my module has to be renamed. What would a proper name be? "DT::TZ::TimeScale::TAI" perhaps? This would leave room for other time scales, such as "TimeScale::GPS".
I'm open to either solution.
So, Dave, your comment that "someday, the pain will stop" may be a bit premature.
I'm sure I was referring to my death, or at least my enfeeblement brought on by too much thinking about leap seconds.
