[15:50] <lool> hey there
[15:51] <lool> I vaguely remember seeing an Ubuntu Server project parsing the data from uec-images.ubuntu.com in Python to find the latest AMI id
[15:51] <lool> would someone mind refreshing my memory on where this lives?
[15:51] <lool> ideally, in packaged python bindings   :-)
[15:53] <lool> ah maybe testdrive
[15:53] <daker> lool, http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/query/released.latest.txt
[15:54] <daker> here is the code used on http://cloud.ubuntu.com/ami http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kim0/+junk/cloudubuntu/view/head:/amilocator/views.py#L29
[15:58] <kim0> daker: thanks :)
[15:59] <daker> yw
[16:20] <lool> daker: thanks!
[19:21] <smoser> erichammond, you do not have your debian squeeze amis in your ami table
[19:21] <smoser> oh wait, now i see they're very old
[19:27] <erichammond> smoser: I don't think the Alestic squeeze AMIs can be upgraded in place without breaking them, so I removed them from the table.
[19:27] <erichammond> They were using the old Amazon kernels which caused incompatibilities with modern Debian.
[19:28] <smoser> do you know http://thecloudmarket.com/search?search_term=debian-6.0-squeeze-base+20110426
[19:28] <smoser> at all ?
[19:30] <erichammond> http://groups.google.com/group/ec2debian/search?q=heady&start=0&scoring=d
[19:31] <erichammond> RightScale has also been working on publishing Debian AMIs.
[19:31] <erichammond> flaccid: ^^^
[19:31] <smoser> thanks erichammond
[19:33] <erichammond> smoser: I haven't seen a clear Debian AMI winner yet, but have posted some of my criteria for judging this here: http://groups.google.com/group/ec2debian/msg/8f12b422f881dbaa
[19:37] <erichammond> off to the office across town.
[23:48] <flaccid> erichammond: they were published quite a while ago
[23:49] <flaccid> erichammond: i have had no time to publicise it or respond to your post
