Couldn't Hobbit (client or server) put some of these timer events into its own crontab file and let the CRON daemon manage and execute them on Hobbit's behalf? This assumes that the CRON daemon is running. Hobbit should not accept any of those timer events in the event CRON daemon is not running.

The interval feature of hobbitlaunch.cfg is really nice.
If it could be possible I would like to see 2 new option:
- a STARTDELAY option that delay the startup of some task in hobbitlaunch by the specified amount of time
- a SCHEDULE option that for example can accept a range of day/date to launch a task and will launch it in that period of time (for example to launch a specific task only Mon-Fri from 2:00AM to 6:00AM).
Thanks for the really good work :D
Francesco
