  Description     : Library for accessing Minio object storage services

  This library provides a client interface to interact with Minio object storage
  services and other Amazon S3 compatible platforms. Users can perform standard
  operations such as uploading, downloading, and managing files within a storage
  bucket. It is capable of listening to bucket notifications, allowing
  applications to respond to file system events. Users of the library can easily
  integrate object storage capabilities into their software, facilitating data
  storage and retrieval processes. Connecting to a Minio server is
  straightforward, with support for secure connections and authentication using
  access keys and secret keys.

This library is a dependency of Home Assistant, the Python smart home platform.
I plan to maintain it as part of the Home Assistant team.

  MinIO has rebranded itself as AIStor and gone closed source with its
ecosystem. That likely renders this ITP moot, but I'll let you close
it, since maybe there could still be a reason to package the Python
library if it remains open source.
