make it run nicely on Micro instances (and I don't see why not), so much the
better.
Maybe we could at least try to describe the cloud a bit, though? That one

I'm not sure we need to get too specific - at least, we can't make specific claims unless someone can validate function, which I can't personally do for cloud guests - but it would be nice to claim function on a certain class of node. Once we clear the installer hurdle, a minimal system doesn't need much.
Clearly, the memory requirements of the installation environment can't be equated to the memory requirements for the running environment, especially for cloud guests. @minimal requires less memory to install than a full desktop - but does anyone want to run Fedora with less memory than that, or is doing so venturing out of reasonable guidelines and into proof-of-concept adventureland?
