Hey Tom, the email I wrote about potential “integration" is almost five years 
old and things change. Primarily I think just a base set of S3 compatible (vs 
AWS hard coded) connectivity would be more than enough. It’s pretty trivial to 
use minio (or any compatible s3 object store) in conjunction with LC as is. The 
LC library doesn’t support multi-part and that’s a likely better thing to be 
looking at for their company vs. a tie in with a third party. The low hanging 
fruit is to allow connections to things other than amazon.

As you know, FOSS S3 compatible hosts can provide LC developers with all sorts 
of good things— temp urls, replacement for ftp, simple IAM workflows to provide 
registration keys without the overhead needed with a full LAMP stack. Just 
takes a little imagination, really. LC already has load stack from url so 
loading from minio/cloudian/scality et al would work quite well. 

I am on the digest version of this list  so apologies for delayed response--

Mark
