The entire database is comprised of data from many things that should be provided elsewhere. What makes the leapsecond data unique? How is it fundamentally different than the rest of the offset data in this database? There's a time that the offset is valid, and an offset. Fundamentally, that's no different than the other offset data. I fail to see the relevance of the US law angle at all. There's nothing in US law that precludes others from providing it. There's nothing in US law that requires people to get this data from any source at all. There is US that says so and so should provide it, but again, that's doesn't preclude others from also providing it. > Again this is something the gov. is responsible for IMHO and it should be > a formal project of NIST ITS or the Calibration Services desk. > > By the way the legal damage from spoofing this table US huge.

This is a time database provided on an as-is basis for the purposes of allowing time datum to be exchanged and displayed in a pleasing format to local users.
