I wonder if we need to add a definition of "leap second table expiration".
That wouldn't hurt. Perhaps something like the following in the Section 2 definitions? ----- Leap Second Table: A record of a series of consecutive leap seconds. Leap Second Table Expiration: The cutoff time for a leap second table, such that the table does not record the presence or absence of leap seconds on or after the cutoff. For example, a leap second table published in January, which predicts the presence or absence of a leap second at June's end, might expire in mid-December because when the table is published it is not known whether a leap second will occur at December's end. ----- PS. I see that the draft sometimes says "leap second" and sometimes "leap-second". I assume that follows some editorial rule that I don't remember. The above text might need hyphenization to fix that.
