Sorry for not replying to this earlier, I just saw this thread because of the newsletter. We have had CentOS Images running in the cloud since 09/06/2007, and there have had a public script out for it, you can check us out in the Amazon catalog here: http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry!default.jspa?categoryID.... This also has a build script here: http://s3.amazonaws.com/rightscale_scripts/CentOS5_2V4_0_2_Beta.sh, if you want to roll your own. If anyone needs any help or has any question on this shoot me an email. Also thanks to the CentOS team for all your hard work.

When I got in touch with amazon a long long time back, the aim was to plumb in something into the centos buildsystems, so that we are able to churn out an 'official' CentOS image at the same time as we do a release for isos etc. They were quite keen initially, but something happened - might be related to Martin Buhr moving, and they lost most interest.
I would *really* like to get that project back on track. If not then we can go the route of just having images that others can use, perhaps not from something that amazon provide themselves.

Its always good to know that the work is appreciated! Btw, I've heard good things about what you guys are doing at rightscale as well.

Yeah, I have no idea why they decided not to pursue this, however, to them it could seem to hard to manage many distributions.

I would be glad to help you with this project. You will need an AmazonAWS account to put the images in.
