Which still states that a configuration tool for the System task
scheduler does not exist yet. This is not true anymore :)

It would be a good idea to add a section to those pages:

Here is a list of tools that would be useful but do not exist yet: 
      * Partitioning - must handle RAID and LVM setup
      * DHCP server - for setting up a DHCP server
      * NIS server - for setting up an NIS server

Work in progress:
      * System task scheduler - for configuring cron and at (more
        information)
      * Firewall - configuration tool for IP Tables (something more
        finegrained than redhat-config-securitylevel) (more information)


Note about the system-config-schedule tool: It will probably be called
'gnome-schedule' on cvs.gnome.org very soon (and will of course stay
perfectly suitable as a system-config-* tool for Fedora).
