So does the idea cover implementing the systemd timer stuff wireframed here? https://trello-attachments.s3.amazonaws.com/547365780135f0832e93a8b4/1809x3288/7801736e9b624b557a14b57039f20815/timers.png I believe that abhishekmodi2...@gmail.com is also interested in implementing this. Dominik (CC'd) is looking at being a GSoC mentor and would offer suggestions on how to coordinate or choose non-overlapping tasks. > I want to create a D-BUS service with functions that provide crontab's > different functionality.

Although the new D-Bus service would need to be shipped in operating systems before it's useful to users. Do you have a plan for how to make that part happen. It's worth noting for systemd timers such a DBus service already exists, and it's worth having similar behavior when possible. > Also I'm open to new (or other possible) ideas on how to implement it. > > I have intermediate level familiarity with D-BUS and jQuery.
