I was just contacted by an artist that wants to capture the leap-second for a project she does. I think it very well matches the topic of this thread. It brings on the discussion on how to best observe the leap-second. For her part, getting the 23:59:60 reading would be the ideal. I came to realize that few computer clocks would report that even with propper NTP. So, ideas, knowledge, update since the last leap-second? I would sure like to see it in various forms. I would like to have a computer (UNIX/LINUX) clock that provides propper UTC... I would not mind seeing it popping out of my GPS clocks either. I don't think I will have DCF77, MSF or LORAN-C capability on new years eve, otherwise those should be possible to receive here too.
