Rudd-O, An awesome report - looks like there are four or five critical updates to the instructions, two minor bugs and a big gap in the user docs (e.g., what next?)
Many folks are still using euca-tools or some ec2 tools to send API requests to a running nova cloud - you'll need to use the nova-admin binary to set up user accounts and download credentials to use with those tools. (I was pretty sure there was a doc on that somewhere...) Maybe Devin or a racker can pipe up about the status of the new API endpoint - is it ready enough to use? (If so there, are a bunch of clients already built for that API, including android and iphone apps, etc.) If the objectstore is natively running on :3333, then perhaps we don't need the nginx hack anymore? (Sorry, haven't looked at that code in a while.) Otherwise, you'll want to change your objectstore flagfile to run on port 3334, and let nginx proxy to it when appropriate. You should be able to get play-by-play help in the IRC channel, once folks are awake.
