98# UTC TIME STEP
99# on the 1st of July 2012
100#
101#
102# A positive leap second will be introduced at the end of June 2012.
103# The sequence of dates of the UTC second markers will be:
104#
105# 2012 June 30, 23h 59m 59s
106# 2012 June 30, 23h 59m 60s
107# 2012 July 1, 0h 0m 0s
108#
109# The difference between UTC and the International Atomic Time TAI is:
110#
111# from 2009 January 1, 0h UTC, to 2012 July 1 0h UTC : UTC-TAI = - 34s
112# from 2012 July 1, 0h UTC, until further notice : UTC-TAI = - 35s
113#
114# Leap seconds can be introduced in UTC at the end of the months of December
115# or June, depending on the evolution of UT1-TAI. Bulletin C is mailed every
116# six months, either to announce a time step in UTC or to confirm that there
117# will be no time step at the next possible date.
