Indeed and AFAIK is still in a similar state today. There was talk for a long time on the SGE devel list for a TM API to be added, but it seems like this is not considered a high priority feature. I've not only looked but actually used SGE for about 1 year (IIRC, about 5 years ago) during which I had to spend time fixing the interactions with LAM/MPI and many of the parallel applications that were used on that cluster - and finally gave up. On the plus side, during the time that SGE was used, I have never seen a process left behind from a job and the queueing system itself seemed very stable - something that I could not say for the OpenPBS/Torque that I've also tested at that time.
