Cron doesn't work when running windows as a service?! :( Well that
just screwed up my plans - I'm working on a reporting app that will
rely fairly heavily on regularly pulling in external data and figured
the built-in cron would handle that.

Is it all forms of cron that don't work with web2py running as a
windows service or just the hard cron? In other words, does soft cron
still work?
