I wonder if I should read this. In the terminology section Solar day is now
defined as two different things. But worse, the term 'solar day' is used
unqualified throughout the document.

The '25ns' sillyness of GPS with respect to TAI is still there. I now have
an idea where the 100ms for NTP is coming from. That's really sad.

With this kind of silly stuff still in there it is not worth trying to
make sense of the document.
