I believe I'm in a minority and don't challenge the majority decision, but I would prefer a date/time representation based on a pair (days,ticks), where ticks is a count of some suitable fraction of a second.

I think (days,ticks) might be worth examining for UTC time, since UTC has a variable number of seconds for each day (usually 86400, but may be one more or one less). -- Ashley Yakeley, Seattle WA
