Version 0.99.1 released!

Mcron is supposed to be a 100% Vixie compatible cron daemon written in pure guile. As well as understanding Vixie-style `crontab' files, it also accepts scheme files which allow infinite flexibility in the way jobs can be scheduled. However, due to problems in Guile at the moment, only the mcron personality works. This is being released to the development community because:

1) The development community deserves mcron, even without Vixie compatibilty;

2) Maybe someone who knows the Guile internals better than me will be able and willing to work out the troubles.
