Is there any chance of a change to the C code that implements "splayclass" to
give me an easy way of selecting a random quarter-hour slot in each 6 hour
shift? I too have had to up my schedule and reduce my default splay time to 5
minutes in cf-execd to allow the use of splayclass.

Hi,
If readstringlist is used as shown here:
http://www.cfengine.org/manuals/cf3-reference.html#Function-readstringlist
it will give you an "Duplicate selection of value .." for the expected
list of string variable. Looks like the list enclosing brackets {} are not
needed, at least for 3.1.4 v
Hi,
The readfile function adds a newline character ( not present in the file
content ) into the string variable returned. This may lead to
non-convergent behaviour when the variable is used in other file editing.
Tested in version 3.1.4 only.

If you run cf-promises in verbose mode you can see all of the classes the agent
