I've got a couple of folks wondering about driver46. I'll let Juergen discuss this. He has reasons for suggesting that driver46 is a better way to communicate with gpsd. I don't recall what they were, offhand. SHM has its uses, and it has its problems. Some have also suggested using chrony pipes as a way to get timestamps in to NTP. Now I'm trying to remember another discussion where the issue is 'we have a refclock that will give us the "time" but not the "date".' as I recall that has bearing on the SHM driver. Personally, I don't understand why we should support these devices, but apparently it's important to some folks and perhaps I just don't understand the issue.
