To further clarify my question about which UTx timescale to use with NTP, or if
or how to interpolate the values I've attached two plots from IERS for the past
60 days.
BTW, notice last week we had another rare moment -- where the Earth had a near
perfect 86400.0 second day!

HI
I agree that there are more considerations than simply changing the world over
to UT1. My guess is that the TimeNuts list is unlikely to answer those
questions.
We *could* get a handful of servers running. Experimenting with them is likely
a prerequisite to any change down the road.

If this turns into a serious thing then it deserves consideration
whether such servers should be UT1, or instead UT2.
Hi
Ok, so now what we need are at least 5 other public UT1 NTP servers so you can
properly
synch up to a set of them.

configured.
The only issue is that the current UT1 stream has steps at 0h which NTP takes
time to sync to if slewing is enabled. About 2000s in fact. The step size is
far less than the max offset allowed and so

Hi
There have been a number of “unusual” NTP servers running over the years. The
whole
“how do we handle leap seconds” thing resulted in a lot of variation. Simple
answer is still
the same: Only connect to servers that you have checked out.

While fudging the
I have to wonder if it's really such a great idea to have this
as an open NTP server without huge red flags that it is not UTC.
One could imagine it leading to big problems if some people started
syncing to it without undersatnding that it was.
Has there been thought to at least setting the

I have started a new thread for this just in case anyone wants to comment and
added a link to the stats plot as the png got removed from the first post.
This really has more to do with timescale distribution rather than leap seconds
but the fact that NIST put together a UT1 NTP server in the
15 matches
