Are you setting out to beat SRFI 19, or do you have different goals?

If it's *just* time, I'd be interested to compare notes. For PLoT 5.2.1, I've introduced a struct whose instances contain unbounded days (positive and negative) and fractional seconds.

Looks like my last blog entry on it was a few years ago:

I dusted it off during my recent blitz of dumping unreleased code into PLaneT, and it's in the middle of implementing precision-sensitive arithmetic on its rich representations for time points and durations. It's in my work queue, but first I need to push my new embedded documentation library, and probably push my dusty URI library. Plus there's the book, which right now seems more urgent than the time or URI libraries.

Paying rent often delays things. :)
