Hello!
I do not see the point in the idea to abandon leap seconds.
Why all the fuzz? We do survive the "summer|winter time" jumps, what's wrong with the UTC then?! (other than someone wanting to leech to the government money to "fix" the timekeeping software and/or hardware)
Why not to abandon the 29ths of Februaries, - the calender would become "more simple and straightforward"...
Warm regards,
Tony
