What is not obvious about it? At the moment, if the people in a country or region don't like the alignment between their clocks and the sun, they can use their political processes to change their timezone offset and/or DST rules. This will continue to be the case if leap secondds are abolished. Tony. -- f.anthony.n.finch <d...@dotat.at> http://dotat.at/ Biscay, North FitzRoy: Westerly 4 or 5, occasionally 6 in north.
