Thanks. Google has not been my friend, that's why I'm asking this mailing list.

The first guide that you link to, is by a guy who obviously doesn't know why 
dahdi/zaptel are important, and completely ignores it, which means, no IAX2 or 
meet-me.

The second one, is built on a custom Fedora 8 image. The steps are not 
repeatable on any other distro, not even a stock official Fedora 8 one. Fedora 
8 itself is long EOLed and as such, not something I'd want to use on a 
production server. Dahdi compilation as described on that guide doesn't work 
on CentOS or Ubuntu or Debian.

Besides, I asked about anecdotal usage experiences running Asterisk on EC2. 
About whether latency is an issue if extensions are outside the EC2 
availability zone. About reliability of EC2 when used to host a real-time 
application server. Not just an installation guideline.

It seems like no one is using Asterisk on EC2 for a production environment.
