Is there any interest in getting a supported version of the ntp software into the upcoming 10.1 release? I would have thought that the latest patch release of the stable ntp version (4.2.6p5 24-DEC-2011) would be appropriate? I know that the ntp folks are working on releasing 4.2.8 but it isn't quite there yet. I understand that this is a volunteer project and that volunteers don't have time to do everything. I'm just waving the flag in case this is something that may have been overlooked. Thank you to all those committers who look after vendor imports for all of the contributed software that helps make up the FreeBSD releases. --=20 John Marshall --M9NhX3UHpAaciwkO Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAlQGsNAACgkQw/tAaKKahKJx6wCdEefEUIHLgRJQep+tYSDVQnro 76gAniA3Q1jGTR/zoLIRBzGQjaUkGabQ =yj1c -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --M9NhX3UHpAaciwkO--
