 the AMI should get deleted at that same time.

 I don't know if I agree. I'd much prefer keeping final release AMIs around
 for a while (maybe not in all regions, but at least 1) for longer than
 that. The "cloud" can be quite useful for spinning up and debugging
 something on an older release to see how the behavior differs from how you
 remember it behaving and from how it behaves today. I'd compare it to
 using a live cd to do the same thing.

 One example would be that we find bug in kernel Z and want to quickly spin
 up older versions of Fedora to see how far it goes back. I think the cloud
 is an interesting use case for being able to test these things out quickly
 rather than having to find where the images are stored and figure out all
 the options needed to start it locally.
