The NTPsec Project is pleased to announce the tagging of version 1.2.1

Update ntpkeygen/keygone to properly filter # characters. (CVE-2021-22212)

Add dextral peers mode in ntpq and ntpmon.

Drop NTPv1 as the support was not RFC compliant, maybe v2 except mode 6 next.

Fix argument P for ntpd parsing fixed and ntpdate improvements.

Fix crash for raw ntpq readvar.

Add processor usage to NTS-KE logging except on NetBSD.

Remove –build-epoch and replace it with arbitrary –build-desc text.
Passing ‘–build-desc=$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%Sz)’ restores the previous
default extended version.

The build epoch has been replaced with a hardcoded timestamp which will be
manually updated every nine years or so (approx 512w). This makes the
binaries reproducible by default.

Compare versions of ntp.ntpc and libntpc printing a warning if
mismatched. Fix libntpc install path if using it.

Reduce maxclocks default to 5 to reduce the NTP pool load.

Print LIBDIR during ./waf configure.

Add documentation, new GPG key, and other cleanups.
