Has anyone considered the development of an SNMP MIB for the NTP daemon?  I
realize that the protocol has some monitoring facilities built-in, but it
would be nice to utilize our standard SNMP monitoring systems to track such
things as the availability of our time standards (WWV, WWVB, GPS, etc.) and
peer systems.
