My strategy that resulted in a smooth leap insertion: - 31 Dec I checked the servers I used if they had the leap bits set in their responses; - I used 5 with the leap bits set, and I kept two servers without the bits (yes, one is an xs4all time server;-) - right after the leap 5 servers agreed (more or less), and my time continued stable.
