Hi,

Just a note to say that I took a drive across to Hamilton yesterday
to hear Mike Culver [1] speak to a small group of Linux users.

It was for me a very beneficial journey. Mike spent an hour and a half
speaking during which time he covered the three main Amazon web services
(S3, EC2 and SQS) along with examples of how they are currently being
used.

I came away with ideas brewing about how I can pull this together with
Zope3 with the intention of saving on my server costs and perhaps
finally begin to turn a profit for the hosting I provide.

Regards,
Darryl

I *really* wanted to hear Mike Culver speak but unfortunately had
conflicting schedules when he spoke in Christchurch on Monday. I'd be
interested in hearing some of your ideas, particularly in relation to
how they impact on zope hosting. Would you be willing to share some of
these with the list?

Thanks in advance,
Tim

Fair call. As I find time and develop some code I will certainly share
it.
