Release : 2.el6

Summary : A simple lightweight interface to Amazon Web Services
Description :
Boto is a Python package that provides interfaces to Amazon Web Services.
It supports S3 (Simple Storage Service), SQS (Simple Queue Service) via
the REST API's provided by those services and EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud)
via the Query API. The goal of boto is to provide a very simple, easy to
use, lightweight wrapper around the Amazon services.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This update fixes numerous bugs and adds support for new services by rebasing it to the
current version.
If you are upgrading from a version of boto earlier than 2.6, note that this version of
boto verifies SSL certificates by default. To disable this verification, add
"https_validate_certificates = False" to the "[boto]" section of your
boto configuration file or add "validate_certs=False" to Connection class
constructors or connect_* methods.
For more information, see the upstream release notes:
