Make a list of servers that erroneously advertise a leap second and 
publish it!  It may shame some sysadmins into fixing their systems and 
may also serve as a warning to others.

The list should include ONLY stratum one servers; anybody else 
erroneously advertising a leap second almost certainly got it, directly 
or indirectly, from a stratum one server.
