== DESCRIPTION:

The EventMachine AWS library will hopefully provide a robust, fast, and secure 
interface to Amazon EC2, EBS, S3, SQS, SDB, and CloudFront. 


- EventMachineAws::Sqs -- interface to second-generation Amazon SQS (Simple Queue Service)

== FEATURES:

- A few I'm sure.

== REQUIREMENTS:

EventMachineAWS requires REXML and the right_aws gem.
The right_aws library is used extensively to handle the HTTP protocol semantics
of AWS. 

== INSTALL:

# TODO: Needs packaging
