Hi Yakov,
And I still stand by what I said earlier that I don't think NTP needs to be
included here. I'd rather that we keep NTP and 1588 separate and only merge
them if we think its absolutely essential that a common uniform solution is
developed for the two protocols.

It is the normal practice of the IETF to design a single common
mechanism for a problem, so you need to justify why we need to develop a
special purpose protocol rather than develop for instance a time
correction protocol.
It would be better in my view to design a correction mechanism that sits
as preamble to an opaque payload and then fix up the timing packet in
the Timing equivalent of a PW NSP. That would work for any protocol that
needed time of flight correction.
