The kickstart comes from

  http://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/cloud-kickstarts.git/tree/ec2

It's built (into a raw image) in Fedora's Koji build system using
appliance-creator, and then processed and uploaded to EC2 using scripts
from https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/browser/scripts/cloud.

That has a lot of Fedora-rel-eng-specific stuff, though. For building your
own, I think ami-creator is probably the easiest. See:
