Def not SOAP-based. Uses the JSON descriptions provided by botocore[0], along with static type overrides from amazonka[1] to generate code that uses the query API.

The error parsing's a little busted right now (produces unhelpful messages), which is the last thing that needs to be fixed before it can be released. I'll try and dedicate some time to it this week. Mindy, if you want to get a head start I can give you access the the repo before the release.
