I've thought about it. It shouldn't be all that difficuly. I wrote a tol that would help: https://gitlab.com/esr/pytogo > How long would it take us to rewrite, from scratch, everything in ntpclients?

I've learned by hard experience not to try to do a language translation and a rewrite at the same time, so this is a question I wouldn't want to broach while doing a lift. That said, I think the structure of pylib is basically sound. -- <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/">Eric S.
