Still need to fix 2 test suite failures for gcrypt. +Otherwise, only WebDAV remains unconverted. + +Earlier today, I investigated switching from hS3 to +<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/aws>. Learned its API, which seemed a +lot easier to comprehend than the other two times I looked at it. Wrote +some test programs, which are in the `s3-aws` branch. I was able to stream +in large files to S3, without ever buffering them in memory (which hS3's +API precludes). And for chunking, it can reuse an http connection. +This seems very promising. (Also, it might eventually get Glacier support..) + +I have uploaded haskell-aws to Debian, and once it gets into testing and +backports, I plan to switch git-annex over to it. |
