------------------------- Tracker #1125 proposed change
----------------------------

Currently we have:
"Evaluates into 'exited', a non-zero value if stat was returned for a job
that terminated normally. A zero value can also indicate that although the
job has terminated normally an exit status is not available or that it is
not known whether the job terminated normally. In both cases
drmaa_wexitstatus() SHALL NOT provide exit status information.
A non-zero 'exited' value indicates more detailed diagnosis can be provided
by means of drmaa_wifsignaled(), drmaa_wtermsig(),drmaa_wexitstatus(), and
drmaa_wcoredump()."

It was proposed (Hrabri's adaptation of Peter's latest proposal) to change
it to 

"Evaluates into 'exited' a non-zero value if stat was returned for a ended
job 
that either failed after running or finished after running (see section
2.6).
A non-zero 'exited' value indicates more detailed diagnosis can be provided
by
means of drmaa_wifsignaled(), drmaa_wtermsig(),drmaa_wexitstatus(), and
drmaa_wcoredump() functions.
A zero result for the 'exited' parameter either indicates that 
   1) although it is known that the job was running, more information is not
available 
   2) it is not known whether the job was running 

In both cases drmaa_wexitstatus() SHALL NOT provide exit status
information."
