I have a .pem private key and want the public part in format suitable for SSH, e.g. so I can put it into OpenStack:

ssh-keygen -y -f cloudsts.pem

I want to make some changes to the azurecompute JClouds Labs provider and test them locally. Go into the azurecompute directory, put this into pom.xml and run mvn clean package source:jar install -DskipTests:

  <version>2.0.0-eapqe.4.ladicek</version>

For the azurecompute-arm JClouds Labs provider, you have to do the same and also replace all occurences of ${project.version} in the pom.xml by ${project.parent.version}.
