Chris Dadigian (BioTeam) on Sun Grid Engine 6.0 writes:

I've been working with SunEdu to refresh the grid engine web and instructorled training to mesh with the new SGE 6.0 release that is going to be announced on June 1st at SunONE.

I've independently tracked down and documented all of the information on "grid engine 5.3 vs 6.0 vs. Sun N1GE 6.0" and placed it online here: http://bioteam.net/dag/gridengine-6-features.html
