Hi,

Long-time user of CentOS 7 AMIs from the AWS Marketplace. I see that the
latest CentOS 7 and all CentOS 8 AMIs are only available outside of the
Marketplace ("These images are published outside of the AWS Market Place
and are shared directly" - https://wiki.centos.org/Cloud/AWS)

I'm really keen to understand if this is short-term situation, or if this
is the indefinite future of CentOS AMI releases? There were a number of
benefits to the Marketplace model - mainly for us is the ability to use
Packer to fetch the latest AMI for the product code, plus also
notifications. Are there reasons behind the recent change?

Many thanks,

Marc
