Where did you hear that Amazon doesn't want FreeBSD on AWS? Colin Percival's postings on the matter seem to indicate otherwise however its just not very high on their priority list. Also I believe there are FreeBSD images in the Marketplace.
If you don't think we've been working closely with Colin, ... you're wrong.
We heard it directly from Amazon. To quote:
"After reviewing with our team and leadership, we will not be able to list the product in its current form. Only products built on supported file systems are allowed, and specifically we are not accepting any new FreeBSD products into Marketplace."
As I indicated above, we are continuing to work with them. The "supported file systems" is about the process used to build the AMI. (And yes, Colin uses exactly the same process.)
I figured you would have been working with him, I was just going off of what his older posts has said. I didn't know they had somewhat changed their policies.
BTW, thanks for the work on PFSense, while I don't use it at the moment, its been very useful in the past.
