Is there an AWS library in the works for D? It's seriously the main

If not, I can try to invest time into making one, but I could use help.
(fyi, there's one in the works for Rust: https://github.com/rusoto/rusoto)
I have some old code here:
https://github.com/braddr/downloads.dlang.org/tree/master/src
It has sig v2 signing and some s3 object related code. Super minimal and sig
v2 is out of date
(though still very usable, in most aws regions).
Ideally, someone would partner with aws -- there's a developer tools forum --
to add D to the suite
of languages. I'm fairly sure they code generate at least a large part of the
tool kits from the
api definitions for each of the tons of services. Trying to manage them all by
hand is a loosing
battle.
I've been tempted to do this a couple times, but the time investment would
likely be more than I'm
willing to spend.
I've started talking with a few of the aws sdk engineers (some of who I worked with when I was
there) today about their sdk and the tooling involved. It might not be a horrible job to add
another language to the mix. I'm going to meet with them and dig through some of the tooling to get
a better feel for it.
Later,
Brad
