Bill won't be happy because it is a PLL solution, not a linear
regression one. However, on a quick skim, it feels like the explanation
of the working and the issues is a lot clearer than anything I've seen
from Mills.
It starts off a bit badly by talking about the size of nptd, when, in
fact, very little of ntpd is actually involved in the core algorithm.
Most of it, I guess, is reference clock drivers, plus configuration and
monitoring code.
