New - Amazon S3 Server Side Encryption for Data at Rest
http://aws.typepad.com/aws/2011/10/new-amazon-s3-server-side-encryption.html
Amazon S3 Server Side Encryption handles all encryption, decryption, and key management in a totally transparent fashion. When you PUT an object and request encryption (in an HTTP header supplied as part of the PUT), we generate a unique key, encrypt your data with the key, and then encrypt the key with a master key. For added protection, keys are stored in hosts that are separate and distinct from those used to store your data.

How Ruby is beating Python in the battle for the Soul of System Administration
http://devopsanywhere.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-ruby-is-beating-python-in-battle.html
- In many ways it is the love child of perl and smalltalk.
- Ruby's greatest strength is its amazing flexibility.
- Python intentionally has minimal magic. It's greatest strengths are the best practices it enforces across its community.

-For CM, you missed bcfg2 which is written in Python.
