i like this article from november last year, in the run up to the ITU world radiocommunication conference, about the increasingly firm plans to abolish the leap second
https://web.archive.org/web/20231103043101/https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/03/science/time-leap-second.html
however the ITU-R WRC23 didn't agree on the "leap minute" proposal, instead they decided "the maximum value for the difference between UT1 and UTC should be no less than 100 seconds"
