I'd use a date+time indicator plus a location indication too (i said "organization-internal shorthand of TZID" for the latter on the TZ list). (Nonetheless i repeat that having TAI plus the current LEAPDRIFT at hand would ease date and time calculation algorithms, and also that i don't understand why the existing information is thrown away instead of being delivered along with the UTC information over NTP.) --steffen _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list LEAPSECS@leapsecond.com https://pairlist6.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
