Hi!
We've recently added the #jclouds IRC channel to BotBot.me, and the

Each cloud, however, has its own semantics and specific features,

use the com.amazonaws.services.s3.AmazonS3Client client directly?
Thanks Andrew, it now makes sense that ACLs would be a provider-specific
feature. Maybe my confusion arose simply because the S3-specific docs [1]
were a bit out-of-date, with regards to getting the provider-specific API?
