We need to agree on the NTPv5 requirements before we can discuss the details of the actual protocol. I have few comments on some specific parts of the document: - "The specification MUST have support for servers to notify clients that the service is unavailable, and clients MUST have clearly defined behaviours honouring this signalling." This looks like a good goal but I suspect we may not be able to define a useful behavior for an unauthenticated context. - "Leap second smearing SHOULD NOT be part of the wire specification" I think the protocol needs to have some way to indicate that the server has leap smearing enabled. Servers implementing leap smear, but clients not knowing about it (e.g. using its own leap second source) is a major concern in some environments. - "Encryption and authentication MUST be provided by the protocol specification as a default" It's not clear to me what the default means here. That it is enabled by default in all implementations that support it? -- Miroslav Lichvar
