Comment 8 for bug 418549

Ok, no harm done, since I was only solving my own problems here.

Just making a note for people who come here reading this, that the same solution is generally applicable for any other public or private cloud too, whenever you use virtual images. (rackspace/openstack, vmware, kvm, xen...) The only piece missing then is that you'd have to create your own subclass of AbstractLatentBuildSlave in buildbot, as the EC2LatentBuildSlave is specificall for EC2.

Afte thar, the concept of using runurl and an external configuration script works the same with all virtualization technologies (and I strongly recommend it).
