[ntp:questions] How to choose time servers

I'm located at a university.  We have a master Stratum 1 server with a
GPS clock.  We also have at least four Stratum 2 servers which are
synchronized with the master.  These are all very close, with delay
and offset values less than 1.  How should I use these resources?

Should I put them all in ntp.conf?
Should I use only the Stratum 2 servers?
Should I include one or more independent servers from somewhere else?
