This week began the meeting of ITU-R WRC 23.  One preparation for this
meeting was a document issued early this year

The future of Coordinated Universal Time

This looks at the use of time in several arenas, many of which would
like UTC to stop having leap seconds.  Many also allow that keeping
agreement with the earth in the long run is necessary, and that they
have no idea how to do that.
