+#

+#	00:00:00 UTC on the indicated day. See Note 5 below.)
+#	
+#	Important notes:
+#
+#	1. Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is often referred to
+#	as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). The GMT time scale is no
+#	longer used, and the use of GMT to designate UTC is
+#	discouraged.
+#
+#	2. The UTC time scale is realized by many national 
+#	laboratories and timing centers. Each laboratory
+#	identifies its realization with its name: Thus
+#	UTC(NIST), UTC(USNO), etc. The differences among
+#	these different realizations are typically on the
+#	order of a few nanoseconds (i.e., 0.000 000 00x s)
+#	and can be ignored for many purposes. These differences
+#	are tabulated in Circular T, which is published monthly
+#	by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures
+#	(BIPM). See www.bipm.fr for more information.
+#
+#	3. The current defintion of the relationship between UTC 
+#	and TAI dates from 1 January 1972. A number of different 
+#	time scales were in use before than epoch, and it can be 
+#	quite difficult to compute precise timestamps and time 
+#	intervals in those "prehistoric" days. For more information,
+#	consult:
+#
+#		The Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical
+#		Ephemeris.
+#	or
+#		Terry Quinn, "The BIPM and the Accurate Measurement
+#		of Time," Proc. of the IEEE, Vol. 79, pp. 894-905,
+#		July, 1991.
+#
+#	4.  The insertion of leap seconds into UTC is currently the
+#	responsibility of the International Earth Rotation Service,
+#	which is located at the Paris Observatory: 
+#
+#	Central Bureau of IERS
+#	61, Avenue de l'Observatoire
+#	75014 Paris, France.
+#
+#	Leap seconds are announced by the IERS in its Bulletin C
+#
+#	See hpiers.obspm.fr or www.iers.org for more details.
+#
+#	All national laboratories and timing centers use the
+#	data from the BIPM and the IERS to construct their
+#	local realizations of UTC.
+#
+#	Although the definition also includes the possibility
+#	of dropping seconds ("negative" leap seconds), this has 
+#	never been done and is unlikely to be necessary in the 
+#	foreseeable future.
+#
+#	5. If your system keeps time as the number of seconds since
+#	some epoch (e.g., NTP timestamps), then the algorithm for
+#	assigning a UTC time stamp to an event that happens during a positive
+#	leap second is not well defined. The official name of that leap 
+#	second is 23:59:60, but there is no way of representing that time 
+#	in these systems. 
+#	Many systems of this type effectively stop the system clock for 
+#	one second during the leap second and use a time that is equivalent 
+#	to 23:59:59 UTC twice. For these systems, the corresponding TAI 
+#	timestamp would be obtained by advancing to the next entry in the
+#	following table when the time equivalent to 23:59:59 UTC
+#	is used for the second time. Thus the leap second which
+#	occurred on 30 June 1972 at 23:59:59 UTC would have TAI
+#	timestamps computed as follows:
+#
+#	...
+#	30 June 1972 23:59:59 (2287785599, first time):	TAI= UTC + 10 seconds
+#	30 June 1972 23:59:60 (2287785599,second time):	TAI= UTC + 11 seconds
+#	1  July 1972 00:00:00 (2287785600)		TAI= UTC + 11 seconds
+#	...
+#
+#	If your system realizes the leap second by repeating 00:00:00 UTC twice
+#	(this is possible but not usual), then the advance to the next entry
+#	in the table must occur the second time that a time equivlent to 
+#	00:00:00 UTC is used. Thus, using the same example as above:
+#
+#	...
+#       30 June 1972 23:59:59 (2287785599):		TAI= UTC + 10 seconds
+#       30 June 1972 23:59:60 (2287785600, first time):	TAI= UTC + 10 seconds
+#       1  July 1972 00:00:00 (2287785600,second time):	TAI= UTC + 11 seconds
+#	...
+#
+#	in both cases the use of timestamps based on TAI produces a smooth
+#	time scale with no discontinuity in the time interval.
+#
+#	This complexity would not be needed for negative leap seconds (if they 
+#	are ever used). The UTC time would skip 23:59:59 and advance from 
+#	23:59:58 to 00:00:00 in that case.  The TAI offset would decrease by 
+#	1 second at the same instant.  This is a much easier situation to deal 
+#	with, since the difficulty of unambiguously representing the epoch 
+#	during the leap second does not arise.
