[Owncloud] CronJob System within ownCloud

[Alessandro Cosentino]

I need a cron job system for news app too. The use case is the
following: if the user doesn't check the reader for a long time, he
might miss some items that might have been in the feed and then been
removed. This happens with feeds that have frequent updates.

I know that Jakob is working on this.
