Anyone specifically using such a "tracking" version of UTC wants to track earth angle, rather than coordinate with civil time, so why not just let them use UT1? That way they get the best precision available, which is currently at the ones or tens of microseconds level.
What these users want is a get_ut1_timeofday(), which can easily be implemented, either by a kernel or better yet, an web-enabled astro-friendly user library. /tvb _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list LEAPSECS@leapsecond.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
