The initial use case was for a single node setup, Chronos for an early stage startup. I/we will be adding support for it to be distributed here soon, but not until the single-node, single binary with no external requirements setup is production ready.

If you have any feature requests, please create an issue in github. The more people request something the sooner it will get implemented.

Thanks for the feedback though.

Feel free to throw issues into the GH tracker so we can get them on the roadmap.

My initial use case for this is for complicated time-based triggers that would be an absolute PITA/impossible to model in cron. We both felt the pain of setting up celery, etc.; @ajvb took that pain and put this together.
