That's not entirely true, the cloud images are updated for major
security events. They are also built every day [1]. The issue is to
date there's not been a proper process in which they're
updated/communicated etc. Over all I welcome what you generally
propose.
Fair enough. I guess my major point here is these updated images are not
the something that a user can consume on each of the supported cloud
providers after the initial GA for the current Fedora release cycle
without a bunch of manual work.
Having a release cadence for updating these official images will help
users out a lot.
