The protocol overview (1.2) is not fully up to date. It seems the phrasing should be updated to specify that the server returns one single NTP server address, not a list. I.e section 4.1.7 of draft-20 currently reads: "Its body consists of an ASCII-encoded [ANSI.X3-4.1986] string. The contents of the string SHALL be either an IPv4 address in dotted decimal notation, an IPv6 address, or a fully qualified domain name (FQDN)." Returning a sequence of 16 octets in network byte order has been obsolete for quite a while. -- /Martin
