There are a few bobbles: the author seems a bit confused over whether NTP is an Internet RFC or a piece of software,
In many ways, that is not all that different from the confusion we experience on this list from time to time between the Reference Implementation (tzcode) and other libraries which parse either TZif or the tzdata source files, and the issues that arise when those other implementations don't behave quite the same way as the Reference Implementation does -- particularly when they expose (and users come to depend on) what the maintainers consider "implementation details". And of course both communities end up having to paper over the mistake that the POSIX committee made with regard to leap seconds, but do it in different, not entirely compatible ways. -GAWollman
