Greetings,

If you're using goamz (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/goamz) to communicate
with AWS, please pay attention for a moment as you'll have to update
your local branch right now for it to continue working. The structure
of the code in Launchpad has changed to best accommodate the growing
number of packages that are getting under the goamz umbrella.

If you were using the latest version of goamz/ec2 or goamz/s3, you
won't have to update your code since the import paths remain the same.
Just clean up your local branch and fetch it again with something
like:

rm -rf $GOPATH/launchpad.net/goamz
go get launchpad.net/goamz/aws

Besides goamz/aws, goamz/ec2, and goamz/s3, there are also three new
experimental packages:

launchpad.net/goamz/exp/sdb
launchpad.net/goamz/exp/sns
launchpad.net/goamz/exp/mturk

Some of these are not yet in a great state since they were dropped by
the original authors after the initial submission, but they're being
included under exp even then because this way people can use what's
there, test, improve, and eventually we'll turn them into first-class
goamz packages.

Please note that the new branch is compatible with the recent Go
weeklies only, since history was dropped on the way of aggregating all
the branches. Hopefully that won't be a major issue given that Go 1 is
imminent.

Documentation may be found at:

http://goneat.org/pkg/launchpad.net/goamz/

If you're contributing to goamz, all of the code is now under a single branch:

bzr branch lp:goamz

Special thanks to the following people for recent improvements and for
the experimental packages that are getting in:

- Andrew Chilton
- Brad Rydzewski
- Graham Miller
- Prudhvi Krishna
- Roger Peppe
