Yes we do include the generated files and autogen.sh should only be used
when adding new files or changing the .am files. This is because (among
other reasons) we need to build on system where the automake tools do
not exist and can't install them. So having files like configure
pre-generated solves the situation.
While is does break the standard this is how we have chosen to do it,
hopefully it also makes it easier for most people since they don't have
to run autogen.sh.

I noticed you excluded the configure script and other stuff needed to build the
package. I guess I'll add it back in on my fork. If you don't want it in your
repo I'll just put it on a build branch.
"configure" and other auto-generated files should *never* be in SCM
trees such as GitHub. Use the "autogen.sh" script to generate them.
"configure.ac" is the source file, and it's in the original
slurm-drmaa tree.
While I agree with the sentiment...have you looked at the Slurm repo?
