[Bigjob-users] bigjob on teragrid/xsede

[Yaakoub El Khamra]

Also can I point out something I should have pointed out a while ago:
users have to install virtualenv on almost all supercomputers. At least the
top 5 on XSEDE, all the ones we have allocations on.

This means, users have to install virtualenv to install bigjob. That's not
practical. d) is what most users will want to use since they already have
to add to the pythonpath from the saga installation.
