WhatsUp from: 2013-03-11 until: 2013-03-24

seaside
Hi! We're sending this automatic email twice a month, to give the community an opportunity to easily know what's happening and to coordinate efforts.  Just answer informally, and feel free to spawn discussions thereafter!

### Here's what I've been up to since the last WhatsUp:

- $HEROIC_ACHIEVEMENTS_OR_DISMAL_FAILURES_OR_SIMPLE_BORING_NECESSARY_TASKS

### What's next, until 2013-03-24 (*):

- $NEXT_STEPS_TOWARDS_WORLD_DOMINATION

(*) we'll be expecting results by then ;)

Ok… apparently the day-of-month and day-of-week fields in a crontab do not act as AND but as OR. Now the email should get sent on 1st and 3rd mondays only.

Re: WhatsUp from: 2013-03-11 until: 2013-03-24

Damien Pollet
from the man page:

       The "sixth" field (the rest of the line) specifies the command to be run.  The  entire
       command  portion  of  the  line,  up  to a newline or % character, will be executed by
       /bin/sh or by the shell specified in the SHELL variable  of  the  cronfile.   Percent-
       signs (%) in the command, unless escaped with backslash (\), will be changed into new‐
       line characters, and all data after the first % will be sent to the command  as  stan‐
       dard input.

*hyperventilates*
