Here's a cron-job reminder script...

...that we're going to be using here at ekit. Might be useful for
other people. Could use some work making it more general and easier to
customise.

+are currently assigned to them.
+
+TODO: introduce some structure ;)
+TODO: possibly make this more general and configurable...
+
+Note: The instance that this script was designed for has a modified schema!
+      You will want to modify this script to customise it for your own schema!
