Hey great work! :)
Have you considered to port cron as well as atd? I know it's a little bit more 
demanding task, as we might want to modify crontab semantics to distinguish 
between jobs that wake the phone and those who are handled the "traditional" 
way. Also FSO might want to see a dbus interface to cron for *setting* new 
alarms (if they make up their mind to move this functionality from the 
designated PIMD to cron where it belongs to IMHO)

What's with batch(1) btw?
