January 25th, EC2 Calculation Improvments
9:07 I just go the email that I can download the private key and certificate to sign the application. I will try this out today. I took several faxes to ChoosenSecurity to prove that AppsDen, LLC is really my company. The issue was that AppsDen belongs to Nouvelles Solutions, Inc (http://n-so.com) which is my consultancy company. Anyhow I received the certificates and this will allow me to code...

I work about 10 hours a week on this project and plan to have...

AwsUsageAnalyzer is the size of project I can deal with. It’s not easy but it’s manageable the other projects where for sure too ambitious.
