Currently, Sourceforge acts only as CVS repository, nothing more. You 
might want to checkout the source code, compile it and see if it runs on 
your Condor installation. Binary distributions of the library will only 
occure in the context of new Condor 6.7.x releases.

Might be the case, but this would lead to strong licencing issues. The 
DRMAA idea is to have a native, optimized DRMAA C library for each DRM 
system. High-level language bindings for DRMAA (Java, Perl) should rely 
on the DRMAA-C-version and might therefore work with existing libraries 
from different vendors.Dan Templeton, one of the SGE developers, already 
described how to port SGE's Java-DRMAA to another system:
