Yes I know. If you assume WSRF and WSN and take an aggressive line we 
have a minimalist solution:

MJobFactory_create (JSDL_Doucment, Initial_TT) -> EPR

MJob implements WSRF-RP, WSRF-LT, WS-BN
MJob_status as a resource property

And you're done.

Subscribe to value change notification on 'status' and you pretty much 
can do all of GRAM, minus the Globus specific bits. I don't think I 
would go for this minimal, but it was an interesting exercise. NB: I 
know JSDL pretty well and there's a lot there, which helps.
