[tor-talk] Tor bridges in the Amazon cloud

[nano]

I took another run at this and managed to get a bridge running under the 
free usage tier.

It works fine, but I have an Amazon problem (that some here may know how 
to solve).

I am trying to setup a Billing Alert[1] to notify me when I exceed my 
free usage limit. However, despite setting up the instance >12 hours ago 
and enabling Billing Alerts in account preferences, I am still receiving 
the following message in the Alarms panel {

No billing metrics found. If you recently enabled billing metrics, it 
may take up to 6 hours for them to appear here. If they do not appear 
please visit the Billing Console, you may need to adjust your 
preferences to receive billing alerts.
}

I recall a discussion not too long ago where the suggestion of Billing 
Alerts was made to avoid incurring unexpected fees at the end of the 
month. I was hoping someone knows what I need to do to activate this. 
Thanks.
