I am interested in getting users experiences running a simple Java app.
as a cron job on a Linux server. I am interested in hearing about any
good or bad experiences or if doing this is a plain bad idea. I haven't
touched Java in a number of years but it sounds like Java may be a good
solution for the next project I work on. Actually I think Python would
be ideal but I am trying to avoid bringing a 3rd language into our
environment.

Thanks for any info.
