Which AMI ID are you looking for, in which regions? We had a problem

Fedora 21 for HVM in us-west-2. I can dig up the AMI ID if you'd like. Id' have to look at our past CI builds. This is how we're searching for them:

https://github.com/BD2KGenomics/cgcloud/blob/a1d3d752fd05d35f8b9ce0487af4b7e156ce55d8/core/src/cgcloud/core/fedora_box.py#L30

 
where we accidentally had many _unreleased_ snapshots consuming space
and costing us significant money, and recently cleaned those up.
However, all of the _released_ images back to F18 should still be
there. In US East for F21, we have ami-d2d999ba for F21 PV and
ami-acd999c4 and ami-78bafa10 for HVM. (I'm not sure offhand what the
distinction between those other two is -- I'm looking this up in the
middle of a meeting...)

Of course, we *do* strongly recommend using the supported releases, but
we understand that it's important to have time to transition and that
sometimes old images are useful for testing, too.
