web2py-celery is a plugin. It is already posted on google code. Has some bugs and recurrent tasks for not work. It depends on celery, elrang, rabitmq, sqlalchemy. If you want to use it like django-celery (i.e. have web2py access the db) then celery must log everything in the database.
The gluon/scheduler.py is a lightweight version and has no dependencies. It uses the database to log everything by default so for small number of workers it is as good/bad as web2py-celery. I think gluon/scheduler.py once stable should be preferred to cron. cron will not die but will be slowly deprecated. web2py-celery (once works well) should be considered an option for power users. Should be easy to move tasks from scheduler to web2py- celery. They are designed to be somewhat compatible. scheduler is much easier to use and requires no setup.
