I don't "get it"... I mean, I get the concept -- it's a crontab; but why would someone opt to put these events here instead of in the God-given CRONTAB as everything else in the system uses? This just seems like one more place to forget about a query/code and have "unexpected" things happen.
We already have a plethora of 'cron-like' tools: * at * /etc/crontab * /var/spool/crontabs/root * /var/spool/crontabs/joeblow * /etc/cron.d/ * /etc/cron.daily/ * /etc/cron.hourly/ * /etc/cron.monthly/ Unless I'm missing some killer functionality this provides (and from that URL, I'm not seeing any), then I wish the Sun/mySQL team would have spent their precious time on more pressing features and or bug-fixes such as this one that is now FOUR YEARS old...
