A common requirement is to execute actions based on passage of time. Can I have some input on how you slick Drupal people out there have attacked this issue?
An example. Let's say you have the stereotypical workflow of create -> approve -> publish. If the approver doesn't approve or disapprove within 1 week of node creation, an email reminder is to be sent to the approver.
What's the most elegant way to trigger the email?

You can use workflow_ng
You can use workflow_ng module - you have scheduled events which run via cron, (using the Custom Content Links module) .
Custom Content Links = Custom Links ?
Re: "using the Custom Content Links module"
Is this a reference to Custom Links? (http://drupal.org/project/custom_links)
Custom Content Links module
Custom Content Links module is part of the workflow_ng module
Thanks
Thanks, that's the sort of thing I'm after. I see there's a useful tutorial at http://drupal.org/node/175319.
