I'm trying to shake whatever I can to make whatever possible happen. Good t=
hing you replied. Do you have any idea of a schedule when we could be seein=
g FreeBSD on EC2 ?

Opensolaris is dead=2C so apart from Linux no other Unix run in EC2 =3B so =
I think this would be a good thing for FreeBSD to be there as much a good t=
hing for Amazon to open up to other OSes than Linux/Windows. How much work =
is needed to make this happen ?
