Good to hear that (I hope that even though English is not my native
language I understand properly posts in this thread). I am convinced,
that all of You will be pround of the new solution like a "heart bit"
for PostgreSQL. May be it is too poetic but considering cron or
pgAgent instead real job manager is like considering defibrillator
instead a real heart. Currently, especially in web applications, the
idea is not where to store a data but how a data can flow and how *fast*.
"It's pretty interesting to think of all the places you could go with
it." - in fact it is :)
