Thank you Richard for your help.

Yes, I saw it and I am looking forward to 2.0.

Until then I stick with an endpoint only implementation. In fact the
differentiation of LocalClock and ClockSlave makes sense for endpoints too.

My task is to prototype an industrial TSN node. My hardware supports taking
two timestamps (from two different hardware clocks) for each message.

I already implemented a third option: I messed with the linuxptp code so
that timestamps relative to LocalClock are passed into delay measurement
and timestamps relative to ClockSlave are passed into the servo. It works
very well.

I stumbled upon some minor issues that I will address in other threads.
