About Licence of their SDK :
https://developer.amazon.com/appsandservices/support/pml.html
"you will not (a) incorporate or compile any portion of the Program
Materials into your own programs or any other software, (b)
distribute, sub-license or otherwise provide any portion of the
Program Materials to any third party, or (c) modify or create
derivative works of the Program Materials."
...
May actually be a good point. Their license also explicitly calls out
that software made with the SDK should be intended for distribution in
Amazon's App Store.
" You may use Program Materials only in connection with Your Products
intended for distribution through the Distribution Program, unless the
documentation for the applicable Program Materials authorizes broader use. "
I think we might need to summon a lawyer on this one.

No it isn't. For starters it will break the 2.0 API and
require a 3.0 API release.

Amazon's SDK is a giant zip bundle. We will need to find a way
to package it into the local maven repo.
Yeah it's a nightmare. You can get this ZIP only from their
developer's portal. Once unzipped, you have to dig some folder
before finding the ADM jar (the only one that we need)
They do publish some things to central, but it looks like that
is their AWS APIs but not ADM.
Yep, I checked as well and it's only for AWS stuff :(
