BTW, the best time & frequency glossary on the web so far is at:
http://tf.nist.gov/general/glossary.htm
There's also an index at:
http://tf.nist.gov/general/enc-index.htm

That's a good example of a point I didn't make last time...

Official sites like NIST usually don't do a good job of linking out to other
sites.  When they do, they often go to official or manufacturers sites rather
than informal/amateur sites.

That's not bad, but it might not help newbies find places like time-nuts when
they are trying to get started.

I should have mentioned that there is nothing wrong with having multiple
FAQ/Wiki sites run by amateurs.  The trick is that they usually cross-link to
each other.  If google (or dumb luck) takes you to one, that usually helps
you find the others.

And don't forget those NTP people. BTW, is there an NTP packet exchange
example? That is, what is the typical "conversation" between an NTP server
and a client?

Dear Azelio,

Count on me for that. I am doing my thesis in network synchronization and NTP will be the main course. I will be posting a brief of the thesis and all related information in my soon to be published web page. I dream NTP now…
