[Bioclusters] job queueing systems for ibm blade center

[Rayson Ho]

AFAIK, they didn't release the source... the license was modified a few
years ago to add the opensource terms, but they keep on saying that
they can't release the source because the source won't build outside of
their environment! (WTF?)

Also, Condor sends the cluster information back to the University of
Wisconsin:

I personally don't like the idea of having someone spying on my
cluster.
