[hobbit] BB-Hosts DOWNTIME

[Josh Luthman]

This statement says we expect downtime between midnight and 11:59PM Sunday
(0th day of the week), then specifies the weekdays between 6:30PM and 7:30AM
(the following day) and gets as specific as Saturday (6th day of the week)
between 8:30AM and 11:59PM.

DOWNTIME=0:0000:2359,W:1830:0730,6:0830:2359

Confirmed working with 4.2.0 - no patches or updates

I think you want

DOWNTIME=*:0200:0230 - specifying all days of the week, between 2AM and
2:30AM we expect downtime.  Maybe you don't want an asterisk?
