It's not just AMIs but qcow2 images as well. Thomas built some and uploaded
them to HP Cloud. It would be beneficial to others to be able to download
them from somewhere and use them in their environment (private clouds,
devstack, pure KVM, you name it).

So I'm assuming everybody who's currently building images is doing so in
their own environment and not on Debian infrastructure? Can we entertain
the thought of putting together an image build system of some sorts?
