Ta. 'What I mean' is probably just the functionality to start and stop 
VMs. Straightforward enough that direct HTTP calls to implement that 
should be fine, but if there was something out there which already has 
the functionality that'd be lovely :)

I've had a play with the AWS SDK, and it needs a bit of work to patch in 
the endpoints, painful but doable. However, the preference is to go 
OpenStack native if possible ...
