Steve,
Neat implementation idea (as usual!).
 
I’m still evaluating if this approach could replace a custom system which 
we have which does this, so we could use Sakai instead.
If so, we’ll look at this approach.

Hi Gregory,
For this sort of regular process I would create a quartz script that hooks 
into the assignment API to get the info, then send out an email to 
students. This would be a pretty sweet integration, it could even be 
configured in Assignments (send reminder x days before due). If I had a 
few spare hours I'd love to do this!
Cheers
Steve

I posted this to Sakai-user, but thought perhaps this was a better forum 
to ask::
 
Is there any existing feature or user addition to have automated reminders 
for non-submitted assignments?
 
The basic idea is that if there is a project due in various milestones 
over a course, if a student has not submitted one they would get an email 
reminder at some point, and then maybe another escalating one after the 
due date, but before the last accept-until date?
 
Conceptually one could scan the database for assignments and submissions, 
and then have some external program do this – but of course(!) such 
database hooks are discouraged!  :-)
 
Or is there enough information available from existing web-services to 
implement such a reminder utility as an external program? (That seems 
simpler and better to decouple it than as a part of a Sakai build.)
