Another issue that came out of the discussion is that there is no obvious way to contact a specific pool server operator. Has anyone got any thoughts on this? I wondered about recommending DNS TXT records to pool server operators, or maybe a clear reference on www.pool.ntp.org to a page of contact details for any given pool server IP address.
When using the usual ntpd timeserver, it is possible to add variables that can be viewed with ntpq.

Example (put this in /etc/ntp.conf):

setvar access_policy="do not poll more than once per 15 seconds" default
setvar admin_contact="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" default

Now when you do "ntpq -c rv servername" you get those variables printed.
