Dear all, I've implemented 'ParseTime' and 'Read' instances for 'AbsoluteTime'. Before submitting a patch I want to confirm with you that they belong in 'Data.Time.Format.Parse' as opposed to 'Data.Time.Clock.TAI'. Is this correct? I'm doing work on additional time coordinates of interest to e.g. astrodynamicists. In particular Terrestrial Time (TT = TAI + 32.184 seconds, previously known as Terrestrial Dynamical Time or TDT) and perhaps Geocentric Coordinate Time (TCG) and others. Would you be interested in receiving patches with these rather esoteric time coordinates? If not I'll release them in a new "time-astro" package. Thanks, Bjorn Buckwalter
