the current release(2.0.1) doesn't work with ap-northeast-2 region.

[dary4n]

the current release was built with aws-java-sdk ver 1.10.20 (from pom.xml), so doesn't support ap-northeast-2 region. an update to the aws-java-sdk is required ver 1.10.45 or newer for supporing ap-northeast-2 region.

Here's the catalina.out

I've updated the dependency on the SDK and released it under 2.0.2. It should appear in Maven Central in a couple of hours.
