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.)
