Hi Ron,<div><br></div><div>Sorry I ran out of time this evening. I'll try to make the AMI available in the US in the next few days. I've updated the blog post to indicate that the AMI is currently only available in EU-WEST region. </div>
<div>I'll let you know when I've something for you to look at.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers</div><div><br></div><div>Nick<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 3 January 2011 16:51, Welch, Ronald P (US SSA) <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ronald.p.welch@baesystems.com">ronald.p.welch@baesystems.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Nick,<div><br></div><div>Nice work. Thanks for doing this. But one thing I noticed</div>
<div>is that the AMI is only available in the "EU West" region. </div><div>Looking for it any of the other regions results in "No </div><div>records found." (see attached) for me. Is there any way </div>

To help new AWS customers get started in the cloud, AWS is introducing a new free usage tier. Beginning November 1, new AWS customers will be able to run a free Amazon EC2 Micro Instance for a year...</blockquote><div><br>
</div><div>I've created an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) (ami-7f9bae0b) which is preconfigured with a webserver, Gemstone, GemTools into which I've loaded Seaside 3.03 and latest Pier code. You should be able to use the machine image to rapidly deploy your Seaside applications or use the AMI as the basis for your own improved configuration, then share that configuration back with the community. Creating and sharing modified configurations is relatively straight-forward [2].</div>
