cron cron cron

Drupal/CivicSpace, which powers this site, needs cron to execute some scheduled tasks. Since we don't have cron on the server, I made a script that looped with a sleep and executed the tasks regularly. Problem: this script got killed regularly, which resulted in no cron for weeks (until I remembered to restart the script, that is). I've now put crontask on another dedicated server with real cron, so it should always run now, which'll mean notifications are in time again.
PS.: Yes, I'm still active :). And I can give anyone admin rights if he or she wants (just so you can promote posts to the frontpage, etc.). Just mail/PM me.
