Right.  That's what I'd suggest, without knowing quite what you need to
do.

For what it's worth, I had a sometimes-working Python implementation of
tracking jobs &c using qstat XML output for use in Jobmonarch
<https://subtrac.sara.nl/oss/jobmonarch>, but SGE changes kept breaking
it.  I could probably revive it for the post-6.2u5 code, but I think
it's more reliable to grovel the normal output than to use the XML.

An useful API is important.  Unless Univa already have plans, it would
be useful to collect information about what to copy/avoid from LSF, PBS,
OAR &c in an implementation.  I noted it as an RFE at
https://arc.liv.ac.uk/trac/SGE/ticket/835.  People who know could
contribute info under that ticket or anywhere else appropriate, like the
gridengine.info wiki.
