 I recently upgraded my very simple WP site to 3.5 where the following was
 in use:

 Theme: Twenty Eleven
 Plugins: None Activated

 I have been completely unable to submit a post for publishing in a future
 date, when the time occurs, I get a "missed schedule" message.

 The schedule entry in cron is as follows:

 Next due (GMT/UTC): Jan 4, 2013 @ 11:28 (1357298880)
           Schedule: One-off event
               Hook: publish_future_post
          Arguments: [0]: 358

 Increasing the timeout value in cron.php has made no difference.

 I will need to remain on a lower release until this is fixed or a
 diagnosis "kit" is made available.

 I am not using any software other that WP produced at this point and feel
 that the lack of wp-cron documentation and support in the public domain
 leaves alot of people clocking many hours googling in desperation...

 Make a difference in 2013 and get 3.5 development priorities to de-mystify
 the methods of fixing wp-cron please :o)
