Yes, I have heard nothing but great things about Amazon EC2. In fact, I have developed similar infrastructure on my own, but using VMware Server. I just got an offer to join EC2 recently. Does Ubuntu need help in working to get an EC2 project going? I am interested in helping if people are serious about it and Canonical would fund the effort for testing purposes... -- Kristian Hermansen -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server
