> 2.	“Condor DRMAA 1.0 Implementation – Experience Report,” by Peter

> Wisconsin-Madison,
> 3.	“Experience report about running DRMAA C compliance test with  
> GridWay DRMAA implementation,” by the GridWay team.

> In addition, the revised version of DRMAA GFD-R-P.022 was  
> implemented for PBS / Torque by the OpenDSP project team.  
> Implementations for Unicore and Apple's Xgrid were recently  
> announced on the DRMAA mailing list. All of these implementations  
> realize a C-language library for each particular DRM system.  
> According to the respective authors, ALL implementations were  
> created from scratch, without reusing existing DRMAA library code  
> from external parties. DRMAA WG members participated in the  
> development of the N1TM Grid Engine and Condor implementation, but  
> not in the other DRMAA library implementations.

[Bicycle crash boiler plate: I will include this boiler plate in my  
mails for a few weeks to apologize for terseness in the rest of the  
mail.  I have a broken finger from the crash on Oct 4th, and typing  
is hard and possible only in short spurts. Sorry, Dave.]
