Event scheduling
Anyone else want event scheduling / cron / temporal triggers in
postgresql? http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/events-overview.html
shows how it works in mysql.
Can we throw money at someone to get this in postgres? Is there work
already being done on this?
Being able to regularly execute a postgres function every so often
would be really nice. It would simplify lots of deployments.
Thanks,
Joe

I'm working on this. Glad to hear someone else wants this also.

When I say "working on this", I mean the ability to have a
user-defined daemon in Postgres, which is sufficient infrastructure to
provide the basis for a user space scheduler.
I'm not going anywhere near writing anything that looks like a scheduler.
