  Description     : Not Quite PTP

nqptp is a daemon that monitors timing data from PTP clocks it sees on
ports 319 and 320. It maintains records for one clock, identified by
its Clock ID.

It is a companion application to Shairport Sync (shairport-sync in
Debian, maintained by myself) and provides timing information for
Apple AirPlay 2 operation.

nqptp implements a subset of the IEEE 1588-2008 protocol only. It is
not a PTP clock and conflicts with other real PTP users.
