Now there is something interesting! ;O)

Thanks!

I just tossed it onto my box, and I run it in interactive mode and it keeps
updating nicely. It does some, but not all of the things I had in mind.
However, being GPLed, I may end up having a few contributions to make. ;O)

I should make an effort later tonight to make a propper daemon-installation.

Any real ideas on how to make it work in coordination with NTP?

I'll have a look under the hood later, I have another logging effort I need to
do.

PS: My Z3801A is now down to 500 ns/24 hrs.

Cheers,
Magnus
