@tphoney will there be a way to put tags on the AWS instances that are created by the pool? We handle billing internally by tag.

Yes, that functionality is already there. if you look at https://docs.drone.io/runner/aws/configuration/pool/ specifically

Seeing as the Alpha is out and the docs are out. I am closing this. https://docs.drone.io/runner/aws/overview/

@tphoney if David wants to test it out and give feedback or if he needs help should he post to Discourse (similar to what we've been doing for Kubernetes runner) or do you prefer Slack?

[tphoney]

Yeah sorry, i was a little trigger happy. Discourse would be perfect https://discourse.drone.io/

If there is an alpha out there somewhere id be happy to play with it, especially if i can start playing with windows agents
