Sort of. The NTS people appear to be ntpsec people: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ntp-using-nts-for-ntp-07 https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ntp-using-nts-for-ntp... , and talk about how clearing out the crud (including unused modes) provides enough headroom for the work of adding security.
- tptacek 10y agoWhat you really mean to say there is that Franke is heavily involved both in ntpsec and in modernizing NTP protocol security. :) But the two projects are unrelated. I'm also interested in (and more optimistic about) things like AGL's roughtime: https://roughtime.googlesource.com/roughtime https://roughtime.googlesource.com/roughtime ... but I acknowledge being somewhat mystified by how much complexity is in NTP given the very minimal needs virtually everyone I've ever worked with had for time synchronization. We all need it, but we don't need it to be ntpd-grade featureful. So this is probably a blind spot for me, and maybe roughtime is less promising than NTS.
