Below find proposed relatively minor proposed changes to the time zone package: * leapseconds: updated to reflect no mid-2009 leap second * tz-art.htm: information on two CDs added * zic.c: fix fencepost error The change to zic.c will result in changed binary outputs in a handful of cases. If no one spots problems, these changes should appear at ftp://elsie on 2009-02-08. --ado diff -c -r old/leapseconds new/leapseconds *** old/leapseconds Wed Jan 14 17:35:16 2009 --- new/leapseconds Tue Jan 27 15:46:54 2009 *************** *** 1,4 **** ! # @(#)leapseconds 8.6 # Allowance for leapseconds added to each timezone file. --- 1,4 ---- ! # @(#)leapseconds 8.7 # Allowance for leapseconds added to each timezone file. *************** *** 53,92 **** # SERVICE DE LA ROTATION TERRESTRE # OBSERVATOIRE DE PARIS # 61, Av. de l'Observatoire 75014 PARIS (France) ! # Tel. : 33 (0) 1 40 51 22 26 # FAX : 33 (0) 1 40 51 22 91 ! # e-mail : services.iers@obspm.fr ! # http://hpiers.obspm.fr/eop-pc # ! # Paris, 4 July 2008 # ! # Bulletin C 36 # # To authorities responsible # for the measurement and # distribution of time # ! # UTC TIME STEP ! # on the 1st of January 2009 # ! # A positive leap second will be introduced at the end of December 2008. ! # The sequence of dates of the UTC second markers will be: # ! # 2008 December 31, 23h 59m 59s ! # 2008 December 31, 23h 59m 60s ! # 2009 January 1, 0h 0m 0s # - # The difference between UTC and the International Atomic Time TAI is: - # - # from 2006 January 1, 0h UTC, to 2009 January 1 0h UTC : UTC-TAI = - 33s - # from 2009 January 1, 0h UTC, until further notice : UTC-TAI = - 34s - # # Leap seconds can be introduced in UTC at the end of the months of December ! # or June, depending on the evolution of UT1-TAI.
