Well, the SAGA group had this discussion - also with the
DRMAA and GridCPR folx btw.  And yes, we hoped that, at some
point, people would simply adopt our L&F part, and add
packages.

But at the end its up to the individual groups if they want
to do that, or not.  Let a thousand flowers bloom, right?
Oh well, three... ;-)

Anyway, SAGA people will certainly try to add an update to
their RPC package, which also incorporates the data
management features.  In previous OGF discussions, we
already checked if that is expressable/implementable in SAGA
(it is).

As Hidemoto said, that would be on top of GridRPC.  Yes,
duplication of effort to some extent.

Cheers, Andre.

Nothing is ever easy.
