Discussion: Full definition of a cron pattern

[Hexagon]

Separated from issue #7 by @odinserj

What is the full definition of a cron pattern, "cron", "cron expression", "cron pattern"?

[Hexagon]

I vote for "cron pattern", as the specification mainly focus on the 5-field pattern. In later increments, nicknames/aliases could be added, which might make "cron expression" a better choice. But the main focus would still be on the pattern.
