It would be handy to have manual install instructions next to the composer info.

I eventually found that I could download it from https://github.com/hpcloud/HPCloud-PHP/downloads, but it took some time. A sentence or two about where to get it and where to put it if not module/libraries would be a time saver.

I will update the docs shortly. For reference, there are 4 places the library is checked for (in order)

  1. Via composer. "./vendor/HPCloud/HPCloud-PHP/src"
  2. Dumped right into the modules directory "./HPCloud/Bootstrap.php"
  3. Pear based installs.
  4. Libraries module based downloads. "libraries/HPCloud/Bootstrap.php"

Note, in all these cases except the composer version the src folder is the folder named HPCloud. I'm wondering if we should change that to make it consistent.

Yeah -- this is all true.

I can't remember why I decided to forgo putting the entire HPCloud-PHP code into the module (instead putting just the contents of `src/`). I think it was probably just to save space. I suppose I could just add that.

EDIT: What i mean is that I don't know why I initially decided it would be a good idea to require someone to copy the contents of `src/` instead of just dropping the entire project into the module folder.
