Thanks for the references Steve. I  that note with some dismay, but no 
surprise, that recommendation COM/60 includes in the invitation to WRC15 
"whether by the modification of UTC " which could lead to another 
stalemate, but with delight that no reference to UTC was included in 
that to ITUR, leaving the possibility of de-connecting a future 
continuous time scale.

  Is anyone taking bets on the resolution of the conflict in 2015?
