We should install a minimal NTP client by default. Not ntp, it's far

Systemd comes with systemd-timesyncd these days, JFYI.
Is the addition systemd-timesyncd documented somewhere? 'just
something along the lines of "Simple ntpdate-like time synchronisation
is now provided by systemd". I read the NEWS when upgrading and
didn't notice this change.
Does the laptop task support non-systemd inits? If so,
would there be a benefit to a systemd | ntpdate (or alternative)
dependency for the task?

P.S. Is openntpd the defacto standard these days, for servers?
