Problem: we need to start working on the nextgen jobspec! Solution: create a spec.md that does that. I will next start prototyping this into the library. My first goal will be taking jobspecs and running work with flux (to build, run, etc) and then we can map this into flux miniclusters with the rainbow scheduler.

My computer is acting funky, do not want to lose this work. Signed-off-by: vsoch <[email protected]>
Problem: we did not have a way to describe batch vs submit Solution: a batch is a group of jobs or tasks. If we define an abstraction of groups, it is easy to delineate the two, and the user is free to still define a-la-carte tasks, tasks within groups, or groups within tasks.

Problem: a workload can be any number of submit/batch Solution: create a workload abstraction that can handle the nesting. We can write flux batch scripts as jobspecs to submit with flux job submit, and we do this by doing flux submit with --dry-run and then adding a faux command to a batch-script in files that does not exist. Then we load the jobspec, add the faux script (with the subtasks) and then flux job submit <jobspec>. Next I need to work on the group in group case (a flux batch that submits another flux batch) Signed-off-by: vsoch <[email protected]>

Note that tests will fail because I started tweaking an example but haven't changed any of the jsonschema in the library.
