protocol. But at least this is a standards process conducted in the
open, where you can just get involved directly if you have something
to add.

or you risk whole new kinds of confusion. Hopefully by now the folks
on this list that don't like leap seconds at least have agreed that
any change should be to a new time scale like TI, and announced
decades in advance.

for identity and fail operations that mix but don't match
timescales.
Different epochs will make it painfully obvious when people
mix but don't match timescales in low quality implementations.
Now we just need a name for the proposal

Will your computer's time zone databases be up-to-date then?

I wouldn't be too quick to dismiss tidal braking from Phobos. It's

So it is distressing to see committee members of the ITU headed in a
different direction.

Anyone have a prediction algorithm in mind, and a result of running it
on the last several decades or centuries of data?

In the meantime, I highly recommend Steve's excellent web page at

which summarizes the cogent arguments of who disagrees with
the proposal.

I hope Demetrios and Tom come up with a good solution soon. I'd
recommend Mailman, myself. I think it is important that the list
archives are also ported. If necessary, I can also help finding a
host for the list.
