DRMAA Java binding 0.6.1 with J2SE 1.4.2+ SDK

Great idea!, we will do it so

>> ABOUT THE GRIDWAY META-SCHEDULER:
>>
>> GridWay, on top of Globus services, enables large-scale, secure,
>> reliable and efficient sharing of computing resources (clusters,
>> computing farms, servers, supercomputers...), managed by different DRM
>> (distributed resource management) systems, such as  PBS, SGE, LSF,
>> Condor..., within a single organization (enterprise grid) or scattered
>> across several administrative domains (partner or supply-chain grid).
>> GridWay is an open-source meta-scheduling technology that provides end
>> users and application developers with a scheduling framework similar to
>> that found on local DRM systems, allowing to submit, monitor,
>> synchronize and control jobs by means of  a DRM-like CLI (gwsubmit,
>> gwwait, gwcancel, gwkill...) and the DRMAA API (GGF standard).
>>
>> HIGHLIGHTS:
>>
>> - Easy deployment and adaptability
>> - Improved efficiency and robustness
>> - Advanced scheduling capabilities, such as dynamic discovery &
>> selection, opportunistic migration, performance slowdown detection and
>> support for self-adaptive applications.
>> - Information drivers to interface MDS2 (MDS schema), MDS2 (Glue schema)
>> and MDS4
>> - Execution drivers to interface pre-WS GRAM and WS GRAM (even both
>> simultaneously)
>> - Transfer drivers to interface GridFTP and RFT.
>> - Full support for DRMAA (GGF standard) to develop distributed
>> applications (C and JAVA bindings).
>> - Extended DRM-like commands to submit, monitor, synchronize and control
>> jobs; and monitor grid resources
>> - Extended documentation and improved support forum
>>
