Add Micro instance for EC2 by replacing the underlying SDK. #12
Conversation
In order to fix JENKINS-10331 (adding micro instance type), it was needed to replace the old Amazon AWS library (Typica) with Amazons own SDK for Java. Typica hasn't been updated in over a year and the project seems to have stagnated. Now that Amazon has picked up the ball we might as well use that.
will override what has been set in parent, causing errors in the unit tests.

The unit tests run again. |

Hi Frank, thanks for this work. I have been trying to get this working and having trouble. I'm also interested in being the maintainer on this plugin, so that I can get your work committed and do some of my own (built on top of what you have done). Here is a link to my tale of woe: https://groups.google.com/group/jenkinsci-dev/browse_thread/thread/157848c64d07590a?hl=en If you have any ideas of what I'm doing wrong, I would appreciate the help. And if you are interested in being the maintainer for this, I'm happy to support you doing it (I think all you have to do is ask on the list). I don't want to step on any toes about this. |

(Also to be clear, two of the unit tests seem to be failing in the current version of the ec2-plugin, both from the main repository and from your patch, so I think that either I'm doing something wrong or something changed in the core that broke them) |

I have replied on your thread. I am interested in this plugin, and I have a plan of refactor it so it would be able to support Windows AMI's as well. I don't think I am ready to maintain it though, due to lack of time. |

I would prefer to use #14 instead of this pull request if that's OK with everyone. |

Sounds fine, lets take it there. |

Not all tests pass right now.
