Hey -- I actually solved this problem during the holidays. Lowered the size
to 3 GB as suggested. There just haven't been any new builds that have gone
through, and I haven't cut a new version just yet anyway (due to the
holidays). It's no problem for me to send someone a list of fresh AMIs of
the F21 cloud build with the lowered size tomorrow, if someone can toss them
on the official website, as well. But yeah, this is all done. Just had to
tweak two numbers is all.

Regarding this, I've published a list of new F21 cloud x86_64 base AMIs -- in both HVM
and PV -- to this list[1]. These AMIs have been registered with our minimum size
requirement, 3 GB. Much smaller than the previous 12 GB registrations. Hopefully, this
solves everyone's issues for now. If desired, I can send out a list of fresh Atomic
AMIs with the lower 3 GB requirement, too. That email was mostly an announcement that base
images are now available in HVM, though.
