Hi Laurent,

Replying quickly (whilst this will be fresh in your mind) with a
couple of questions:

 * What are the ramifications of not shipping a .timer? I ask so I
   can expand this into the tag long description. Bonus points if
   you could come up with such a text.

 * Is this in Policy (etc.) at all? This is for external references
   and it somewhat affects the level of the tag,

 * Whats the canonical check for this? (A binary package installs
   something into any /etc/cron.* yet there is no .timer in the same
   package?)


Regards,
