    <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>
    <table class="highlight tab-size js-file-line-container"
      data-tab-size="8">
      <tbody>
        <tr>
          <td id="LC341" class="blob-code blob-code-inner js-file-line">&lt;<span
