Ahoi,

I'd like to contribute a module to CPAN and hence request an author ID. 

Name:           Roland Huß
Mail:           [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ID (preferred): ROLAND

My initial contribution  would be a cron  like scheduler for  invoking
perl subroutines.

As  module name I  suggest Schedule::Cron  (since a  Schedule category
already exists)

The module list entry could be

Name              DSLI Description                                  Info
------------      ---- -------------------------------------------- ----
Schedule::
::Cron            adpO cron-like scheduler for perl subroutines     ROLAND

To be a bit more specific, some extract from the README:

                            Schedule::Cron
                            ==============

This package provides a simple  but complete cron like scheduler.  I.e
this modules  provides a way  for regularly executing a  specific perl
subroutine  (the  'dispatcher').  The  dates and  parameters  for  the
dispatcher are  specified with  a format known  as crontab  entry (see
manpage crontab(5) or documentation of Schedule::Cron).

Schedule::Cron  knows  about  all   extensions  (well,  at  least  all
extensions  I'm aware of)  for crontab  entries like  ranges including
'steps',  specification of  month  and days  of  the week  by name  or
coexistence of lists and ranges in the same field.

EXAMPLE
-------

    use Schedule::Cron;
    
    my $dispatcher = sub { print "@_","\n"};
    my $cron = new Schedule::Cron($dispatcher);  

    $cron->add_entry("12-18/2 7 * * Wed,Fri","Wake up !");
    # Add more entries...
    # .
    # . 
    $cron->run;

thanx...
