<p>Dear users of tzdb,</p>
<p>IERS has announced a new leap second at the end of year 2016, see</p>
<p><a href="https://hpiers.obspm.fr/iers/bul/bulc/bulletinc.dat">https://hpiers.obspm.fr/iers/bul/bulc/bulletinc.dat</a></p>
<p>Another point: <br>
</p>
<p>I have myself written a time library in Java called Time4J which
contains a tz compiler based on your data and which also evaluates
the leap second file contained in tz-data. Hence this library
could be listed in the file "tz-link" within the section "Other tz
compilers" maybe with this description:</p>
