The script isn't intending to be "official" -
jforbes' AMIs fulfill that
role. This is just a working how-to, for those wanting basic starting
tips on creating their own fedora AMI. It's actually not worthwhile to
spend terribly much effort making a good tool out of it; just use
Boxgrinder or such if you want a real tool ;) I believe boxgrinder is
moving along the "official" path already.
Currently (and temporarily) the published AMIs are only S3-backed; some
of us need EBS-backed instances, so for those who do I reminded everyone
of that howto, and let them know I re-verified it works. I have a
happy, never-ran-prior-to-use, AMI for Fedora14 with an EBS the size I
declare.
My point is that going forward "jforbes' AMIs" should be produced by
Release Engineering not that you're doing something wrong.
