Any plans to port to boto3?

[tschoonj]

Hi,

Many thanks for this useful library.

I was wondering if you have any plans to switch to using boto3: boto is at this point no longer properly maintained and bugs are no longer being addressed or pull requests merged.

I am hit for example by this bug, which affects me with python-radosgw-admin, as I try to connect to an endpoint with self-signed certificates. I can get around it with the https_connection_factory hack, but it's not pretty...

Hello @tschoonj

I checked, and unfortunately porting it to boto3 is a big refactoring. boto3 is completely different, less straight forward then the old boto...

And I'll not find the time to do it in the next months.

But if anybody else have the time and capacity to refactor the library to use boto3, I will happily review the changes.

Cheers,
Valery
