Have you made any progress on this?
I am working on second iteration prototype - resp. I worked one month ago. I finished the basic design, basic infrastructure. I designed architecture based on one coordinator and dynamicaly started workers.
I found, so probably some fair policy should be implemented in future.
I have to finish other requests now, so I am planning to continue at end of autumn, but sources are public
I found as interesting idea to handle not only time events, but handle our notifications too. It can be perfect base for building some complex workflow systems. But I did zero work on this topic.
