Hi Doug: The change is very simple, just take a look at a sample config.xml from SGE, etc. - the major difference is instead of <rpmlist> it is now <binary-package-list> (probably a few other subtle changes).
Instead of the original "setup" script, it is now a simple call to "generic-setup" (again, you can just copy the one from the SGE package). Lastly, SRPMS directory is still there, it's just that for RPMs, the directories are divided into different distro directories so that you can put distro specific RPMs there (eg. distro/rhel4-i386, or distro/rhel4). If your RPMs are known to work across all distros, then just put it in distro/common-rpms.
