Version 1.1.90 (Git)

* VPC Support

The following new commands provide full support for manipulating
the EC2 VPC objects:

 lsvpc	        describe-vpcs
 lsvpcattr      describe-vpc-attribute
 mkvpc          create-vpc
 setvpcattr     modify-vpc-attribute
 rmvpc          delete-vpc

* Route table support

The following new commands provide full support for manipulating
the EC2 Route Table objects:

 assocrtab      AssociateRouteTable
 mkrtab         CreateRouteTable
 rmrtab         DeleteRouteTable
 lsrtab         DescribeRouteTables
 disasrtab      DisassociateRouteTable

* Route support

The route subcommand allows you to add, delete and modify routes in
route tables.

** Create route:

 eclat route rtb-12345678 add CIDR gw ID

** Delete route:

 eclat route rtb-12345678 del CIDR

** ReplaceRoute

 eclat route rtb-12345678 repl CIDR gw ID
 
* Subnet support

The following new commands provide full support for manipulating
the EC2 Subnet objects:

 mksubnet       create-subnet 
 rmsubnet       delete-subnet
 lssubnet       describe-subnets
 setsubnetattr  modify-subnet-attribute

* Internet Gateway support
 
The following new commands provide full support for manipulating
the EC2 Internet Gateway objects:

 lsigw          describe-internet-gateways
 mkigw          create-internet-gateway
 rmigw          delete-internet-gateway
 atigw          attach-internet-gateway
 deigw          detach-internet-gateway

Version 1.1, 2015-02-26

* New commands:

 lsaattr   describe-image-attribute
 setaattr  modify-image-attribute

* New options:

 -A, --add-parameter=NAME=VALUE

Adds parameter NAME with the given VALUE to the generated AWS request.
This option is intended for testing new AWS functionality for which
eclat does not yet provide native support.

  -p, --check-permissions
  
Checks if you have the required permissions for the action, without
actually making the request.

* forcibly stop the instance

eclat stop now supports -f (--force) option, which stops the instance
forcibly.

* Implement signature version 4 signing

The signature version 4 signing process is now the default.  Version
2 can enabled by using the following statement in the eclat
configuration file:

  signature-version 2;

* POST support

POST HTTP method is supported.  It is enabled by the following
configuration statement:

  http-method post;
  
* If availability region is not supplied, it is read from the instance store.

* Authentication providers

Support for different authentication providers is introduced.
Authentication provider is a service that supplies AWS access key ID and
secret key.  It is configured by the "authentication-provider"
statement in the configuration file.  The syntax is:

  authentication-provider TYPE [ARG];

TYPE can be one of:

- file
Credentials are obtained from a disk file named by the second
argument.  The statement

  authentication-provider file NAME

is equivalent to

  access-file NAME

of eclat 1.0 and prior.  The "access-file" statement is retained for
backward compatibility.

- instance-store
Credentials are obtained from the instance store.  Second argument
is optional.  If present, it should be the name of the IAM role the
instance is launched with.

* IAM support

If authentication provider is set to "instance-store", its argument
specifies IAM role name.  The authentication credentials are then
taken from the instance store.

* New program: ispeek

Lists content of the instance store.

* Setting UserData instance attribute.

The setiattr (modify-instance-attribute) command automatically encodes
the value of UserData attribute in base64.  A command line option is
provided to read the value from a file.

* lsistat

The default for lsistat (describe-instance-status) command has been
changed to display all instances, no matter their status.  Use the
-r (--running) option to get prior behavior.  The -a (--all) option
has been retained for backward compatibility.
