I have submitted a new version of the draft:

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mlichvar-ntp-ntpv5-01

The main changes from 00 are:
- dropped the follow-up mode to make the protocol simpler
- added "Leap unknown" flag to indicate when server doesn't know if
  there will be a leap second to not confuse the client with
  unreliable data
- added NTPv5 negotiation in NTPv4 using the reference timestamp
- added new extension field to get the server's minimum and maximum
  supported NTP version to enable NTPv6 negotiation
- added a new section to explain stratum and root delay/dispersion
- assigned names to the fixed-point types
