[GitHub] libcloud pull request: [WIP] Support for pickling Driver instances...

GitHub user Kami opened a pull request:

    [WIP] Support for pickling Driver instances and other Libcloud objects

    This pull request adds support for pickling Driver instances (e.g. `NodeDriver`) and support for pickling other Libcloud objects which hold reference to the driver instance (e.g. `Node`, `DNSRecord`, etc.).
    
    Pickling doesn't work out of the box for NodeDriver and other objects since a driver contains a reference to the `Connection` class instance which contains many unpicklable types.
    
    To work around this limitation, we don't pickle the `Connection` class instance, but we just pickle arguments which are needed to re-build / re-create the Connection instance and we re-create the instance when unpickling the object.

You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running:

    $ git pull https://github.com/Kami/libcloud support_for_pickling_driver_instances
