Thanks Craig,

The 12 hours before release we had an additional update, and i haven't
got back to update the documentation fully. I have just added the
correct AMIs from the ones that *I* generated on 2012-11-19, and I will
try and get the dump of the snapshot created ... I haven't had time thus
far this week (my apologies) - the corresponding snaps are marked
'public' so anyone on AWS can grab them (I have always tried to mark all
snaps for an AMI at the same time I mark the AMI itself public.

I've added some additional info to
http://wiki.debian.org/Cloud/AmazonEC2Image/Marketplace on the IDs
responsible.

Thanks for adding the Marketplace shortlink - great idea.


Should we deprecate/archive the older images that are listed on
http://wiki.debian.org/Cloud/AmazonEC2Image?
