Nothing is more frustrating than having some feature you rely on torn out underneath you. I was just talking in terms of having a single stock template we use as the default and then allowing people to pass in their distribution specific one if they need it. I replied to this mail but I want to thank everyone replying for keeping the conversation going. I'll look at making sure it's possible to run ntp out of cron (I don't know if we'll include it in the module but you can set $manage_service to false (or service_ensure => stopped) to run it out of cron. I'll also dig in and look at the driftfile and make sure we manage that properly too!
