Hi all,

During the last days I have provisioned about 1500 VM in AWS and Softlayer 
using Brooklyn. (I am researching about large cloud-application deployments).
However, I found a little problem working with AWS. When a VM is created, 
security groups are also created, but when 
the VM is deleted, the related security groups are not deleted. It was a 
problem for me, because the limit of the security group pool is 
500, and when the pool is full, new VM can not be provisiones because it is not 
possible to add another security group. 

Then, I think it could be good idea to allow security groups to be managed by 
Brooklyn. jclouds provides some interesting interfaces 
to manage security groups in a generic way, maintaing the current abstraction 
in JcloudsLocation and JcloudsMachineLocation. 
(Indeed, I already added to my code the capability of managing (deleting) 
security groups (and keyPairs).)

does it make sense for you? 
WDYT?

Thanks a lot,
Jose
