*smile* In the last 4 years nothing in the scheduler?! :-)
Very funny. Harhar. :-)

Here are three issues from 2004 concerning the scheduler:
	http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2004-2154
	http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2004-0923
	http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2004-0558

I stopped looking through my ChangeLog afterwards, but I'm sure there
are more.

Regards,
	Klaus.
