> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-320
> Project: jclouds
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: jclouds-core
> Affects Versions: 1.6.2
> Reporter: Alex Heneveld
>
> The driving use case is that I want a portable way to say "any recent ubuntu
> or centos". Normally this is the default of course but it doesn't always do
> the right thing when other options are specified -- broken ubuntu "alpha"
> images in AWS being the worst offender (asking for 16gb RAM in us-west-1
> gives back an awful ubuntu 8.04 alpha, for instance!). It would also handle
> use cases where someone says "Ubuntu 11 or 12, or CentOS 6.x, is best.
> failing that, Ubuntu 10 or CentOS 5.x. (and never any alpha images!)".
> I'm thinking allowing to set an `imageSorter(Ordering)`. This fits with how
> the Impl currently works (it already uses an Ordering, you just can't change
> it; and it stays in line with the naming convention of `Sorter` as in
> `Ordering hardwareSorter()`.)
