You seem confused. I don't have any proposals
Then stay out of this.
I already told fesco I would be looking into it as I was doing.
Somehow they got the impression that it meant migrating all the cron
jobs which is not the case, which to me was obvious, to them apparently
not so much.
It *only* might make sense for cron jobs that are accommodated by
services/daemons.
There exist no infrastructure for users own cron jobs, no concepts of
daily/weekly/monthly/.d/ where users can drop a file containing one
liner, which makes timer units less attractive from users usability
standpoint and systemd does not support having separated preset policy
for different types of units. Timer units they should *always* ( or
rather default to that with exceptions ) be enabled to get the exact
cron like behavior.
And in the midst of me doing this research I have to have Bill Notting
butting into my work ( and I know what that means ), trying to come up
with his own list instead of simply asking me for the one I was looking
at [¹] and consulting with me where I was with my findings and now he
can just have at it and finish do it his own way., create those units
and prep the necessary patches to the packages etc. since he's such an
expert on the matter.
