  Doug Gwyn <gwyn@smoke.brl.mil> has been using such generalised batch
software on UNIX systems.  I think his stuff might even be freely
distributable.

  I find it absolutely fascinating that you continue to claim that MIT
developed Palladium and yet the vast majority of MIT won't have
anything to do with it -- including large portions of Project Athena.
(We sent someone from NRL up to MIT to survey the Palladium situation :-)

  To me that is a clear sign that there are problems with Palladium.
Also, existing practice at one site out of hundreds of thousands is
not anything resembling generalised existing practice (which both BSD
and System V do strongly resemble).
