[Seaside] Rapidly deploy your Seaside application for free using Amazon EC2 and Gemstone

[Nick Ager]

Hi,

Hopefully better late than never, I've finally got around to copying over
the EU-WEST AMI into US-EAST. The two available AMIs are:

EU-WEST ami-7f9bae0b
US-EAST ami-603bcb09

I've updated the instructions:

Hope this helps

Nick
