Caveat emptor: AWS requires apache commons

specifically:

commons-logging-1.1.1.jar
commons-httpclient-3.0.1.jar
commons-codec-1.4.jar

The SDK does not include these.
No where in the docs does it say these are required.

I wasted some time figuring this out.

My friend Trimbo says that I should be using 'maven', which would have fetched these JARs magically from the intrarwebs.

I remain skeptical, I have yet to figure out how to get my project set up correctly, its complaining it can't find a server, even though tomcat has been registered globally with Netbeans.

This list of JARs is just for S3, I have no idea what other jars might be needed if other parts of the AWS SDK are touched.
