Ah yes. However, just like "time" this library does not attempt to solve that particular problem. The purpose of leapseconds-announced is to be dead easy to use (no IO and treading of the LeapSecondTable to the usage point), at the cost of longevity. Of course, as I pointed out in the announcement this trade-off isn't suitable for all applications. -Bjorn _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
