If we keep leap-seconds, I would bet even dollars (ie: a 50/50 probability) on at least one (and probably only one) negative leap-second before the 2K38 time_t roll over. This is an unscientific hunch, but based on scientific data: I see far more co-trending in DUT1 and climate model result than I am comfortable with. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 p...@freebsd.org | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list LEAPSECS@leapsecond.com https://pairlist6.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
