All in all, I think it looks reasonably decent. I have some comments on some of the descriptions - I think the Overview page on the wiki has a lot of usefulness in terms of description of community/product.Here's the details for the form I'm going to submit. Would appreciate your input, especially on the Highlights. My comments in [brackets]. My other note is that - esp. in the "company description" since it's the page about "fedora" the distro - we should probably be more consistent in our references to Fedora vs. the Fedora Project - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Overview Company Description: The Fedora Project is a worldwide community of people who love, use, and build free software. We want to lead in the creation and spread of free code and content by working together as a community. Fedora is sponsored by Red Hat, the world's most trusted provider of open source technology. Red Hat invests in Fedora to encourage collaboration and incubate innovative new free software technologies. Maybe... and can we break it up into 2 paragraphs? The Fedora Project is a worldwide, open partnership of free software contributors and enthusiasts. Our mission is to lead the advancement of free and open source software and content as a collaborative community. The Fedora Project is primarily sponsored by Red Hat, the world's most trusted provider of open source technology. (I'm not quite sold on your last line re: why red hat invests, but can go either way, I'm not too picky) One thing to consider: Is it worth highlighting more specifically that Fedora is the upstream for RHEL? That's fine, though I think it would be good to make clear that it's not something like a "nightly image" kind of thing. We don't have to drill into details on "how we'd do that" right now, I agree it's useful to keep the option open.Software By: Fedora Project Title: Fedora 17 Version Title: Fedora 17 (Beefy Miracle) 2012.05.15 [Note: I put the date there because I'd like to leave open the option of updated image spins. Open to suggestions on how best to do this.] Fedora is a Linux-based operating system that provides a wide audience of users with access to the latest free and open source software, in a stable, secure and easy to manage form. The Fedora cloud image in EC2 (blah blah blah, what you have above)Release Notes: Official Fedora Cloud image. Description: Fedora is a Linux-based operating system built on our community's four foundations: freedom, features, friends, and first. The Fedora Cloud image in EC2 provides a functional core on top of which any of tens of thousands of free and open source software packages can be easily added. Ehhhhhhhhhhhhh. That seems misleading, I think to have it as true.Highlight1: Free and Open Source: built by a collaborative community using entirely free software. Highlight2: Core Image Ready to Build Upon: use yum to add any of tens of thousands of software packages, or drop in your own code. [Avoid "minimal", because it isn't. Should I use a more precise count of packages?] Highlight3: NEED SOMETHING HERE [Security? Fedora-ness? Values? Highlight some particlar awesomness?] Support Offered: FALSE [This is a boolean. We _do_ offer community support, of course. Should maybe be true?] I guess this is more of a technical question: How does the above link accurately represent things if we - as you described above - have different "more updated but still F17" images? Do we think people will be confused / looking for F17 - date/morepreciseversion/etc?Support Detail: Community supported. Visit Ask Fedora (http://ask.fedoraproject.org/), or get involved by joining the Fedora Cloud SIG (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cloud_SIG). You can help us make Fedora in the Cloud even more awesome for everyone.

No web services are installed or configured by default. Fedora's EC2 images follow standard EC2 login conventions, meaning that root login is disabled, but sudo access is granted.

End User License Agreement Text: [Copied from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal/Licenses/LicenseAgreement17] Refund and Cancelation Policy: Fedora is available free of charge. Normal Amazon Web Services terms apply. Also: Since we have a mirror internal to amazon - is that something worth highlighting? Or does the AWS marketplace work differently from regular EC2 (I haven't looked in detail at any differences) This is not really true in EC2, I don't think we're doing Fedora in non-us regions, are we? - does AWS marketplace provide wider availability?Available in Regions.... True for all.
