On: Jiff: Datetime library for Rust

[zokier]

That doesn't change the situation of past leap seconds in any way, those still need to be accounted for.

[spenczar5 → zokier]

The nice thing is that you would have a static table of leap seconds, and would not need to poll a URL to check for new leap second data (as Astropy does, for example, on import!).

[fanf2 → zokier]

Do you also need to account for rubber seconds in the pre-1972 version of UTC?
