I’m looking for feedback for writing a module for ec2 spot instances. The main responsibility the process of [creating a spot instance request](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/using-spot-instances-request.html) and waiting for approval. It could also potentially cancel requests etc. These actions seem specific enough to put in a separate module.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
