Well, first we have to allow multiple scheduler policies.  For now 
that's not possible.  One of the changes for 6.2, however, is moving the 
scheduler process into the qmaster as a thread.  Once that happens, we 
may support multiple scheduler threads in the future, each with its own 
scheduler configuration.  If/when that happens, odds are good that each 
scheduler thread will be tied to some set of queues.  Once that happens, 
you will be able to apply the same logic as for resource quotas to 
controlling the scheduler with calendars.

Of course this can easily be achieved with a cronjob but then so can most things in SGE that you would use a "calender" for. It's nicer to have it all within the same system.
