> We have [recently discussed][] a possibility of adding the `Duration.MIN` and `Duration.MAX` constants. Can we now start implementation? If and when we are in agreement on this PR, I will file a CSR.
>
> I drafted a minimal specification and added some tests. I tried to phrase the spec for `Duration.MIN` in a way that makes it clear that `Duration.MIN` is the most negative value and not the least positive.
