FreeBSD on Amazon EC2

[Zladivliba Voskuy]

Thanks for your interesting view on the subject. Yes I guess I too, would really love to hear from a FreeBSD developer on this matter. It would be great to have at least a 386 version working so some of us could put it on ec2 and start with some feedback.

FreeBSD should really be there in my opinion !
