I'm writing a framework that aims to offer the capability to schedule jobs. 
It's based on Quartz 2.0 - http://quartz-scheduler.org/

The goals are:
- persistance is handled by EOF (Quartz offers a JDBC Job store but we use the 
RAMJobStore instead)
- a simplified use of Quartz (only one trigger per job for example)
- no dependency with other frameworks except wonder and EOs that describe a job 
must implement an interface

We have developed an internally framework but the Quartz library and our 
business were closely tied. So I extracted the common features. The dev is done 
and I have to write unit tests before using it in our production env.

It will be free, open.

I will discuss with Pascal if it's worth to show the framework during the 
WOWODC. Not sure to come but now that I know I won't go to the WWDC (to slow to 
take my credit card), the choice is simpler.
