Digging up an old thread (as I came across https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/7564 looking at tagging RDS instances).
It looks like the rds2 module is automatically generated so that it keeps up to date with upstream AWS capabilities, and this change broke backward compatibility. http://boto.readthedocs.org/en/latest/migrations/rds_v1_to_v2.html Do we have a minimum supported boto version? We could rewrite the RDS module to use rds2, but that might affect users on earlier boto versions. Supporting both seems like a headache. However, I suspect we could just use rds2 for the features that just aren't in rds (so make a boto.rds2.RDSConnection if we need to do instance tagging or publicly available). I'm hoping I can use the ec2_tag module to work around my problem but it's worth discussing in more general terms - we can deprecate old Ansible conventions, but when do we deprecate old boto libraries?
