Taking that one step further, there are many UTCs, but there is only one TAI, and it is defined by the BIPM. Does the BIPM approve of the use of the name TAI for the concept which is specified by JSR-310? If not, how do you justify redefining their product? -- Steve Allen <[email protected]> WGS-84 (GPS) UCO/Lick Observatory Natural Sciences II, Room 165 Lat +36.99855 University of California Voice: +1 831 459 3046 Lng -122.06015 Santa Cruz, CA 95064 http://www.ucolick.org/~sla/ Hgt +250 m _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
