Oh, my mistake: I quote RFC5905 below, which is for NTPv4, which is
technically in _draft_ status - though it does seem pretty far along and
I believe current ntpd adheres to NTPv4, not v3.
The NTP code *defines* the spec, and there will be times when the
I think you mean the "ntpd reference implementation", e.g. Microsoft's
NTP code does not define the standard.
Also, I don't think this is the correct relationship between RFCs and
reference implementations. An RFC specifies the protocol for a specific
reference implementation. If you do more than fix bugs in the reference
implementation, you need a new RFC before it becomes the standard.
