Subject: [ntpwg] WGLC on NTS: mutual/client authentication

The mutual/client authentication bits of NTS seem pretty 
underdeveloped in the current doc, and, as I asked during Tuesday's 
meeting, I'm wondering if this feature is really needed.

Are we perhaps just burdening implementations with an unused code 
path?  Absent some compelling need for client authentication, 
shouldn't we take the opportunity to simplify the protocol?

If a future use for client auth comes along, there is this lovely NTS 
version field...
