I first run a command like this: ./utilities/ec2 update-image --public launchpad-ec2test112 -m based-on:ami-e6f6158f Then test it and use ec2-modify-image-attributes to make it public. This is a bit inefficient as it builds an image completely from scratch rather than updating our existing one, but the code that does that doesn't actually upgrade the installed packages currently (I finally got around to filing a bug about this: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-foundations/+bug/493774 ). Anyone can run the above command of course, but only images created by myself, Gary or Francis are considered by ./utilities/ec2 for running currently. The new image is building.
