[Zope] Re: scheduling python script to execute at certain time and day

[Josef Albert Meile]

Some time ago, Sean Upton adviced me not to use cron + wget. He found this a 
bad solution and instead recommended to use to use Zeo + cron. I think that 
this is better than the first approach, but the problem is that you have to 
enable Zeo. In fact, I'm not using Zeo, so I haven't tried it. However, here 
is the thread if you are interested:

Josef.
