/**
 * A Chronology in which each year has exactly 366 days (February is always
 * 29 days long).  This calendar system is used in some climate simulations.
 * In this Chronology, a millisecond instant of zero corresponds with
 * 1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z and a year has a fixed number of milliseconds
 * (1000*60*60*24*366).
 * There is no concept of an era in this calendar, so all durations and fields
 * relating to this concept are not supported.  Additionally, the concept of a
 * "weekyear" (the year that "owns" a given week) is not implemented.
 * Instances of this class can only be created in {@link DateTimeZone#UTC}.
 * (Support for time zones makes little sense in this chronology).
 * Instances of this class are immutable.
