Just to make sure I'm understanding your point completely, neither JSDL nor any of it's normative 
extensions provide a way, not including custom extensions, to specify resource limits for jobs 
submitted to resource managers (i.e. PBS, LSF, Condor, ...). The POSIXApplication limits should be 
used only by applications that are able to directly set the ulimit values before executing a 
process. Is this is a valid statement?
