RA-15 begins Monday in Geneva, but the documents from the ITU-R including their most recent version of the FAQ at http://www.itu.int/en/ITU-R/Documents/ITU-R-FAQ-UTC.pdf indicate that the RA will discuss but make no decision about leap seconds in UTC.
WRC-15 begins the week after that, and the deadline for contributions was the beginning of this week. On the WRC-15 contributions web pages http://www.itu.int/md/R15-WRC15-C/en there are several contributions specifically about AI 1.14. The text of those contributions is not available, but the alliances of countries are visible: [ 131 ] 2015-10-21 United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Iceland, Ireland, Slovenia (Republic of), Vatican City State [ 129 ] 2015-10-20 Benin (Republic of), Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire (Republic of), Gambia (Republic of the), Ghana, Guinea (Republic of), Niger (Republic of the), Nigeria (Federal Republic of), Senegal (Republic of), Togolese Republic [ 84 ] 2015-10-17 Austria, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Italy, Lithuania (Republic of), Luxembourg, Monaco (Principality of), Norway, Poland (Republic of), Romania, Slovak Republic, Spain The one contribution that can be read is the one from Asia-Pacific Telecommunity R15-WRC15-C-0032!A14!MSW-E.docx which prefers method A1, rejects method B, and cautions about A2. -- Steve Allen <[email protected]> WGS-84 (GPS) UCO/Lick Observatory--ISB Natural Sciences II, Room 165 Lat +36.99855 1156 High Street 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] https://pairlist6.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
