There are probably code bases which have nothing to do with Dave Mills'.
you are right. You are suggesting which process?

The change has been implemented by ntp dev team and should be ratified
in the  protocol. From a conversation with Dave Mills :

"John Hay implemented the latest, which amounts to the first 32 bits of
