Here's a patch set I've been sitting on for awhile for the AWS CLI. Do note that the AWS APIs are not exclusive to Amazon. Free software such as Eucalyptus [0] and OpenStack also implement these APIs for compatibility reasons, and both the boto library and awscli itself can be used to manipulate them. If this proves too controversial, I'd still like to apply the first 6 uncontroversial patches. ;) Thanks in advance for review. - Dave [0] https://support.eucalyptus.com/hc/en-us/articles/200844844-Usage-of-AWS-CLI-with-Eucalyptus
