The changes to the protocol are minor. If you are familiar with one protocol, the changes to implement the other is trivial. (Hint - we have a stripped down custom client, for both OTP/NTP, and the code changes between the two different clients amount to 5 lines of code.) The responses between the two will probably start to diverge more and more over time, so you may want to put some thought into what you will do as the OTP protocol changes and migrates further away from NTP.
