Heshan Wanigasooriya just let me know that he has started developing an API module for S3. This means that for modules that are implementing S3 functionality, we can all use a single API module instead of reinventing the wheel every time. Basic get/put functionality is already in place and support for query string authenticated files is coming quickly.
Media Mover's S3 implementation will likely transition to this quite quickly. I suspect we'll be doing a stream wrapper implementation in the near future....
