[Duplicity-talk] Is it create a secure connection to Amazon S3 or not?

[mario_santagiuliana]

Hallo,
I have opened a question here:
https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/100620
now I think it was not the right place to put my question.

I don't understand if duplicity create a secure connection to Amazon S3.
I'm reading the code of duplicity and boto.
Boto S3Connection declaration is:
class boto.s3.connection.S3Connection(aws_access_key_id=None, 
aws_secret_access_key=None, is_secure=True, port=None, proxy=None, 
proxy_port=None, proxy_user=None, proxy_pass=None, host='s3.amazonaws.com', 
debug=0, https_connection_factory=None, 
calling_format=<boto.s3.connection.SubdomainCallingFormat instance at 
0x1fef788>, path='/')
It is take from API documentation:
http://boto.s3.amazonaws.com/ref/s3.html#boto.s3.connection.S3Connection

In duplicity boto backed there is this:
        if parsed_url.scheme == 's3+http':
            # Use the default Amazon S3 host.
            self.conn = S3Connection()
        else:
            assert parsed_url.scheme == 's3'
            self.conn = S3Connection(host=parsed_url.hostname)

From the documentation of Boto I understand how to create a connection to 
Amazon S3:
http://boto.s3.amazonaws.com/s3_tut.html#creating-a-connection
But I don't understand if will create a secure connection or not.

Can you help me?

Thank you very much.

P.S. I hope to be able to expose my question, excuse me for my bad english.
