Wouldn't it be useful to have a sample config that does the following:
- provide time services to the general public
- give sample server entries to get time from
- shows how to setup secure peers with other servers you may be have
- give pointers how to deal with offensive clients

I find the documentation and options for ntp a bit overwhelming; most 
people have no need to setup a stratum 1 server, but simply want time 
and want to provide time.
A well-commented ntp.conf published on www.pool.ntp.org can help with that.
