Re: [Tools-discuss] Proposal for a simpler remind-on-draft-expiration tool

[Robert Sparks <rjsparks at nostrum.com>]

I've done a lot towards this at the last two code sprints, both  
allowing interactive searches for when things expire
and building something that will send email to appropriate parties  
when something's about to expire. Hopefully
it will be ready to deploy soon.
