no it is not. i have searched this fine forum, and found postings with code snippets regarding people wanting to create their own schedulers, people creating EJB3 schedulers, people looking for mbean schedulers. surely there is such a thing as basic timer scheduler included in the distribution? If not, imo it should be included since timers are not useful if they are not triggered. If it is included, the chapter on timers/schedulers in the user guide should be updated, it would surely clear up some confusion. btw, you seem to have hit your caps lock button.
