Note that there is no actual "danger" here. No leap second will be introduced at the end of 2023, so the contents of the current leap-seconds.list are accurate. Nothing bad will happen. Moreover, ntpd only uses leap-seconds.list as a last resort. If peers have leap second information, ntpd will pick that up. Having said that, we should do something about the scary warning. Xin submitted a draft EN. The security-officer team will pick that up. Philip -- Philip Paeps Senior Reality Engineer Alternative Enterprises
