That's right, it seems AMIs are local to a region. Once you've created
an instance, you should be able to clone that into a new AMI of your
own, in whatever region you choose.
Thank you Richard!
I was able to create an instance of this image -- but curiously only
in eu-west region.
FYI to others, port 567 should also be allowed in for the security group used.

Go to http://thecloudmarket.com and put "fossil" in the search box.
or launch directly with
https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/home?region=eu-west-1#launchAmi=ami-03c9f377
I'm not able to find that AMI. I only see one EU region (Ireland). Any
direct links?

By simple I meant you don't have to ask permission, just do it.
Andrey's right, technically it's a bit more challenging. But not much.

Thank you! very nice.
Are there any hoops to jump through to import a VM? When I last
checked, it didn't seem possible to load a non-sanctioned OS image.

I've made a few tweaks to the paravirtualised plan 9 kernel in
/n/sources/xen/xen3 to make it compatible with the xen environment
used in amazon's "elastic compute cloud". There's an example public
AMI (in zone eu-west-1) named ami-03c9f377 which can be used to
instantiate a cpu server with fossil
