[Red5] Choosing a Linux Platform

[Peter Anselmo]

Dan.. where you the guy who bundled up the red5 EC2 AMI?

http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa? 
externalID=1043&categoryID=101

Slightly OT-
For those who have not yet checked out Amazon's EC2 service.. its  
really cool.. I was able to get the red5 edge/origin configuration  
working with a few of these virtual machines.. it opens up so many  
possibilities especially when combined w/ red5
