We'll need documentation to help people setup things to use NTS. I think the
client side will be simple, a sentence or two.
The server side is more complicated. I think we'll want HOWTO level docs.
Probably one using Lets Encrypt and maybe others for when you already have a
certificate infrastructure and maybe one for self signed.

There is a corner case that doesn't get a lot of publicity - how to get off
the ground. That's going to get more complicated with certificates.
Here is an example that I've encountered. Suppose you have 6 servers with
minsane set to 3 all using each other. When recovering from a power failure
everybody ends up waiting for everybody else to get started.

Years ago, I worked for DEC in Palo Alto. Power in our corner of the city was
"interesting". During the summer, our admin guys got a lot of practice in
getting everything going after a power failure. There was a sheet in the
machine room with an ordered list of steps.

These are my opinions. I hate spam.
