A few months ago when I added unit display to the python tools I created the devel/units file to document what the assorted Important Variables in NTPsec represent, and more importantly how that representation changes as the data moves through the programs. Because of my lack of knowledge of NTP and inexperience with C, this file is still very incomplete. It mostly contains random information that I could glean from obvious spots in the codebase.
I am requesting that post-1.0 if you start refactoring or testing the codebase and come across an Important Variable, please add it and what unit it represents to devel/units. There is no need for complicated formatting as of yet, merely appending the information to the file will be sufficient, and I will massage it into a coherent picture.
It also occurs to me that there may be other Important Invariants that need to be documented, but I do not know what those might be.
