I don't see what we're gaining here.  www.pool.ntp.org has always been the 
documented location for the web page.  Your proposal doesn't (and can't) 
stop people who just type pool.ntp.org.  even worse: pool-project.ntp.org 
is not logical, while some people might go to www... if the pool.ntp.org 
addres timeouts or refuses connection. (much rarer if it just returns a 
different web page.)
