        !             6: 
        !             7: If you are going to patch both ntp-stable and ntp-dev
        !             8: please do it this way:
        !             9: 
        !            10:  > cd ntp-stable
        !            11:  > (make and test your changes to ntp-stable first)
        !            12:  > (commit your changes to ntp-stable)
        !            13:  > cd ../ntp-dev

        !            18: With the current release of bitkeeper it is *much* easier to move changes
        !            19: from ntp-stable to ntp-dev than it is to move changes from ntp-dev to
        !            20: ntp-stable.
        !            21: 
        !            22: If you make your changes in the above order and then submit them,
        !            23: it will be trivial to apply your patches.
        !            24: 
        !            25: Otherwise, it will be much more difficult to apply your patches.
        !            26: 
        !            27: You are pretty much done now if your repos are on pogo.udel.edu.

        !            37: If you cannot easily get your patches to pogo, you may submit patches
