Apparently GPSD supports PPS on CTS.
So if you already have got an embedded system and a GPS receiver and

However you're showing a bias which steers away from a better
solution, not needing the overhead of fully-featured NTPd isn't a
defect it's an advantage.
Simply that different folk have different needs.

Well, at least it supports the one key and it is apparently changeable. But
NTP authentication is not mutual authentication, nor does it have anything

The previous version let you monitor the GPS data stream and I monitor
time performance indirectly e.g. using ntpdate. Since it doesn't
actually run NTP typical NTP status and management is irrelevant.

No management required can be better

A Laureline is a better NTP response provider than an RPi (see mike cook's

and doesn't require *any* configuration or monitoring
(but mike cook shows graphs for those that care about such things).
No compiling, no OS updates, no conf file fiddling, no management.
