I think that is implicitly understood that one should follow the rules the pool.ntp.org people have listed. The pool.ntp.org people will happily set up a vendor pool for Ubuntu -- it is just a matter of sending them an email message and putting into the Ubuntu documentation a note encouraging people to join the server pool if they can. In any case, setting up a pool will be a big win. (I also think an ntp client should be configured in Ubuntu by default, as is done in Windows and OS X, but that's another story.)
