Awesome! Thanks for trying that. It was on my very long to-do list. Had no
reason to think it wouldn't work but thanks for reporting it does.

That's the beauty of all this being plain old Java/WAR stuff, not to mention
being open source. Deploy 1 or 1000, the cost is the same. Well, other than
on the Amazon side of course. ;-)

Interesting that this seems to be Amazon's reaction (of sorts) to Google App
Engine, as well as things like Cloud Foundry that are more
application-centric. GAE has the advantage of being free of charge as long
as you stay under their pretty darn generous quotas.

If you're interested in learning more about GAE, OpenCF Summit is the place
to be! http://www.opencfsummit.org

$30 for three days of awesomeness.

We'll have Chris Schalk from Google there, as well as Alan Williamson who
from what I understand may have some big announcements about OpenBD on GAE
at that point. :-)

Hope to see a lot of you there.
