+Installation:
+
+ 1) Install ec2-api-tools on your laptop or build machine
+ 2) Generate and save your private keys:
+ export EC2_PRIVATE_KEY=~/keys/pk.cert
+ export EC2_CERT=~./keys/cert.pem
+ 3) Test your ec2-api-tools:
+ root@inf0:~/Tor-Cloud# ec2-describe-regions
+ REGION eu-west-1 ec2.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com
+ REGION us-east-1 ec2.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
+ REGION ap-northeast-1 ec2.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com
+ REGION us-west-1 ec2.us-west-1.amazonaws.com
+ REGION ap-southeast-1 ec2.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com
+
+ 4) Generate private keys for each region:
+ for example: ec2-add-keypair --region us-east-1 tor-cloud-east-1
+ and save the key in: ~/keys/tor-cloud-east-1.pem, don't forget to run chmod 600 ~/keys/*
+
+ Your folder should look like this:
+ root@inf0:~/Tor-Cloud# ls /home/architect/keys/ -lh
+ -rw------- 1 root root 1.7K 2011-09-12 19:11 tor-cloud-ap-northeast-1.pem
+ -rw------- 1 root root 1.7K 2011-09-12 19:13 tor-cloud-ap-southeast-1.pem
+ -rw------- 1 root root 1.7K 2011-09-12 19:14 tor-cloud-eu-west-1.pem
+ -rw------- 1 root root 1.7K 2011-09-12 19:09 tor-cloud-us-east-1.pem
+ -rw------- 1 root root 1.7K 2011-09-12 19:09 tor-cloud-us-west-1.pem
+
+ 5) Create a Security Group called "tor-cloud-build" and allow SSH inbound traffic.
+
+ 6) You are now ready to build Bridge AMIs:
+ For example, to build in "ap-southeast-1" region run:
+ ./build.sh bridge ap-southeast-1 /home/architect/keys/tor-cloud-ap-southeast-1.pem tor-cloud-ap-southeast-1
+
+ TIP: You can run the build command for all the regions at the same time. Use screen or & to send the process to background!

+The Tor Cloud Project is a collaboration between Expression Technologies
+and the Tor Project, Inc. The goal of this project is to provide
+bridge-by-default images for Amazon EC2.
-Installation:
+All tickets related to this project can be found under the "Tor Cloud"
+component on trac.torproject.org.

-Tor Cloud
-
-Users on the Internet are being introduced to many cloud-based services.
-Amazon Web Service offers a cloud based hosting service called EC2. Users are
-able to launch virtual machines and pay only for what they use. Tor network can
-always use more bandwidth and more nodes in different places around the globe.
-Spot Instances are a new way to purchase and consume Amazon EC2 Instances at
-discounted rates. They allow customers to bid on unused Amazon EC2 capacity and
-run those instances for as long as their bid exceeds the current Spot Price.
-
-We can take advantage of these savings and offer people a way to run relays and
-bridges on the Amazon cloud with little or no technical experties.
-The Tor project would maintain it's own AMI on Amaozn S3 which public can
-launch and quickly add capacity to the Tor network.
-
-We should offer a number of Pricing and Bandwidth tiers. We can have packages
-as low as $10/month. (needs to be re-calculated and tested)
-
-
-AMI - Ubuntu on Amazon EC2
-Canonical, the corporation behind Ubuntu operating system maintains an updated
-AMI of the latest versions of Ubuntu operating system. We can create our scripts
-to work with these official nodes: http://cloud.ubuntu.com/ami/
-
-There AMIs are total of 5 datacenters in 4 countries in the world, we should
-come up with a plan to distribute our Amazon cloud nodes among all 5 locations:
-
-Countires:
-USA, Ireland, Tokyo, Singapore
-
-Datacenteres:
-- asia pacific northeast-1
-- asia pacific southeast-1
-- europe-west-1
-- us-east-1
-- us-west-1
-
-
-TODO: we must change the design, so each instance is owned by a separate Amazon account, rather than having them all
-under one dev-pay account!
-
-Amazon Dev-Pay - easy billing and payment processing
-
-We can take advantage of Amazon Dev-Pay in order to make the process of
-launching Tor nodes seamless to the user.
-We will create a webpage with a few options to launch Tor Cloud AMIs.
-We will have 1 option creted for lowest possible dollar amount and 2 or
-more with higher bandwidth and resources. Tor can add a surcharge to this
-product in order to also generate income, while growing the Tor network.
-At minimum we should charge the cost of dev-pay which is about 3%.
-
-
-We want to minimize the number of steps to enhance the usability of this
-service, Proposed steps:
-
-1. Login to cloud.torproject.org
-2. Select desired Tor image.
-3. login with amazon account/signup for amazon account
-4. Start Node.
-5. Stop/Paus Node.
-
-
-
-Requirements:
-
-- Dedicated amazon account for dev-pay purpose only
-- Build machines
-- Sign up for dev-pay with amazon
-- register a product
-- create AMI
-- associate AMI with product
-- create website at: cloud.torproject.org
-
-
-Design: 20 hours of design
-Programming: 40 hours
-Testing: 20 hours
