This file is used to list changes made in each version of the ntp cookbook.
Update ntpd package for Enterprise Linux 9 (ie Oracle, Rocky, Alma)
Standardise files with files in sous-chefs/repo-management
Added capability to set logconfig using an attribute
Updated readme this cookbook only support chef 15.5+
Remove support for debian-8 / debian-9 / debian-10 / oraclelinux-7 / opensuse-leap-15 Adds support for debian-11 / debian-12
Redhat removed support for ntp in favor of chrony: (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html-single/considerations_in_adopting_rhel_8/index#time-synchronization_infrastructure-services)
since debian bookworm the ntp user is ntpsec (i expect debian will continue to use this in all later versions)
for debian / redhat based os'es there is a leap-second file, prefer to use this.
