hey there - so i read through the script that's used for linux and it 
doesn't really seem salvageable tbh.  i did check out the python module 
that it uses and i didn't see any obvious blockers to wrapping it in a 
small script and calling it from cron:

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/awscli-cwlogs

unfortunately this slipped down my priority list but hopefully i can get 
it setup on my systems in the next month or so.  if you beat me to it 
i'd love to hear how it goes for you :)

Cheers,
-pete
