# @(#)leapseconds 8.1
# Allowance for leapseconds added to each timezone file.
# The International Earth Rotation Service periodically uses leap seconds
# to keep UTC to within 0.9 s of UT1
# (which measures the true angular orientation of the earth in space); see
# Terry J Quinn, The BIPM and the accurate measure of time,
# Proc IEEE 79, 7 (July 1991), 894-905.
# There were no leap seconds before 1972, because the official mechanism
# accounting for the discrepancy between atomic time and the earth's rotation
# did not exist until the early 1970s.
# The correction (+ or -) is made at the given time, so lines
# will typically look like:
# Leap YEAR MON DAY 23:59:60 + R/S
# or
# Leap YEAR MON DAY 23:59:59 - R/S
# If the leapsecond is Rolling (R) the given time is local time
# If the leapsecond is Stationary (S) the given time is UTC
# Leap YEAR MONTH DAY HH:MM:SS CORR R/S

# Bulletin C 30
#
# To authorities responsible
# for the measurement and
# distribution of time
#
#
# UTC TIME STEP
# on the 1st of January 2006
#
# A positive leap second will be introduced at the end of December 2005.
# The sequence of dates of the UTC second markers will be:
#
# 2005 December 31, 23h 59m 59s
# 2005 December 31, 23h 59m 60s
# 2006 January 1, 0h 0m 0s
#
# The difference between UTC and the International Atomic Time TAI is:
#
# from 1999 January 1, 0h UTC, to 2006 January 1 0h UTC : UTC-TAI = - 32s
# from 2006 January 1, 0h UTC, until further notice : UTC-TAI = - 33s
#
# Leap seconds can be introduced in UtC at the end of the months of December
# or June, depending on the evolution of UT1-TAI. Bulletin C is mailed every
# six months, either to announce a time step in UTC or to confirm that there
# will be no time step at the next possible date.
