Hadrian Zbarcea commented on CAMEL-913:
---------------------------------------

@Tracy, you did the right thing, I personally appreciate that and your effort 
is noted.

I am yet to see a credible usecase. My questions 4 and 5 are not yet answered. 
My question 2 was a dumb question, the answer was in the {{repeatCount}}.

I would suggest we either close this issue with a "won't fix" or discuss and 
define what exactly we want to do. To me it's far from clear. My understanding 
is that the problem we are trying to solve is scheduled delivery. For instance, 
I buy Claus a nice watch and send it via DHL, but schedule it to only be 
delivered on his birthday. DHL (which as far as I know does not provide this 
kind of service) will act as a store and forward system, take custody of the 
package, but only deliver at the scheduled time. It's a bit tricky to 
implement, because it's harder to predict the resources needed. Amazon on the 
other hand does offer such a service (even with a repeat count). You can place 
a recurring order (K-cups for your Keurig brewer for instance) and they will be 
delivered, like clockwork at the scheduled time.

I believe that can be implemented already with camel and I we could have an 
example demonstrated that. Or it could give us a better idea of what's missing. 
If I misunderstood and this jira was created with a different scenario in mind, 
please comment.

> CamelReplyTo = activemq:cheese
> CamelTimerDelay = 1000
> {code}
> it'd send a message to activemq:cheese in a second
