Slight surprise there. It's the obviously-correct scheduling to minimise |UT1-UTC|, but IERS has been favouring December in recent years, and there was plenty of slack to postpone this leap until December. (Actually |UT1-UTC| could be kept smaller still by scheduling the leap for March, but that would require a procedural change.) -zefram _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
