Re: [xymon] Planned downtime

Yes, that is what I currently do (I actually have some that are second
X-day of the month which are even more complicated), but it is a shame
that I now do not see the downtime information in the 'info' test. With
BB, no such test existed so it wasn't as big of a deal as everyone was
used to looking in cron.
