Monitor request for individual study

I’m working on security and measurement research of the pool monitoring system. For the past two months, I’ve studied the pool architecture and run my own NTP Pool server.

I’m aware of the standard requirement: a verified pool server running for at least 18 months to become a monitor operator. My server is only two months old, so I’m asking if my application could be considered on a case-by-case basis.

I commit to fully follow all project rules, and responsibly disclose any vulnerabilities before public release.

I’d suggest writing to server-owner-help@ntppool.org and describing your plans.
