ISO 14652 draft on POSIX date/time/tz

[Markus Kuhn]

Those of you interested in upcoming ISO standards related to date/time/
timezone APIs for POSIX systems should have a look at

  http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/volatile/ISO-14652.pdf

especially section 4.7 (8 pages).  This is the usual holy ISO top secret
draft stuff for the enlightened inner circles only, so don't tell anyone
where you found it. I feel that some of the things it introduces (e.g.,
the ISO 8601 B.C. notation) might need a bit more scrutinizing and
alignment with ISO C9x strftime(), but see for yourself.

Editor of this seems to be Keld Simonsen <keld at dkuug.dk> and responsible is
<http://anubis.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC22/WG20/> where comments should be directed
to have impact.
