Document: draft-ietf-ntp-bcp-07 Reviewer: Robert Sparks Review Date: 2018-10-03 IETF LC End Date: 2018-10-08 IESG Telechat date: Not scheduled for a telechat Summary: Ready for publication as a BCP I don't want to start another "What is a BCP" fight, but I think this document would serve the purpose it wants to serve just as well if it were Informational. I don't object to proceeding as BCP though. I found the tone a little unusual (as other reviewers have commented on) as did one of the people who operates large systems but doesn't regularly participate in the IETF that I asked to skim this. That said, I didn't find it's lack of precision in places to be dangerous. If there's appetite to improve it, please do, but I think the world would be better with this document published as is than with no document published at all.
