NTP Security Project announces public development release (ntpsec.org) 6 points by dankohn1 10y ago ↗ HN
[–] fallenpegasus 10y ago ↗ I'm the PM for this project, and can answer questions. Don't speculate about this project, ask me instead! [–] marios 10y ago ↗ From what I read on the ntpsec website, it's essentially a clean up of the ntp codebase as the latter has accumulated a lot of cruft over the years.OpenBSD developed OpenNTPD precisely because of the state of the ntp codebase. Why not start off this, and add the features that are missing ?Another question: why is the Linux Foundation funding both ntpsec and ntimed ?My previous question also applies to ntimed, but that's not for you to answer :).
