Chris' ClockServer removes the need for such a thread, by hooking ZServer's mainloop to generate the "faux" request needed to kick off async processing. A "crontab" - like schedule can be driven equally well from ClockScheduler as from a separate thread.
So what's wrong with including ClockServer in the core or making it easier to install? (ie not having to put packages in the python path which is hard with some hosting arrangements)
And what's the argument against a core scheduler regardless of a clock? Isn't running background tasks a common need amoungst many very different tools and therefore a interstructure issue?
Myself I'm for having ClockServer in the core, if Chris and others agree. Florent -- Florent Guillaume, Nuxeo (Paris, France) CTO, Director of R&D +33 1 40 33 71 59 http://nuxeo.com fg@nuxeo.com
