[Pulp-list] Deprecating Pulp Nodes

[David Davis]

Kodiak,

I think Katello is using sync schedules but they have some other solution
lined up for when we drop them in 3.0. I am not sure of the exact details.

The main reason for dropping sync schedules was to keep the 3.0 MVP as
small as possible and we felt like we could offload the functionality onto
other tools like cron which are much more specialized and better able to
deal with scheduling. If enough users want scheduled syncs back though, we
may take a look at adding it in a 3.x release.

Hope that answers your question.

David
