Well, DRMAA v2 isn't yet finalized and then needs to be approved by OGF. 
Once that's done we certainly have the intention to add support for it.

Do you refer to JGDI, the JMX interface or one of the in-house solutions 
which some community members have been referring to in this thread?

The JGDI and JMX interfaces are maintained but at this point they are 
not public and are not considered stable, i.e. they may change without 
notice and they do not make guarantees for backward compatibility of an 
sort. Hence they are also not documented externally.
