== Project Description ==
[http://buildbot.net/trac The BuildBot ] is software for automatically building and testing other software. [http://aws.amazon.com/ec2 EC2 ] is Amazon's "Elastic Compute Cloud", a service that lets you run Virtual Machines on Amazon's computing grid using a web API. It would be awesome if BuildBot had an EC2 module, and could spawn Virtual Machines on-demand to perform tasks. Conveniently, BuildBot is written in Python, and there's [http://code.google.com/p/boto/ a Python library for interfacing with EC2].
