Greetings.
As one of the things discussed in the "AMI lifetimes" thread this month, I would like to delete all Alpha, Beta, TC, RC, and other scratch AMIs pre-F21 from *both* our community cloud and official AWS accounts.
I've gotten a +1 via list, and two +1s in the meeting today. There have been no objections on the list or in the meeting. This will save us a notable amount in AWS storage charges.
Unless anyone has an objection, I'll start (carefully) deleting these AMIs in 24 hours.

For what it's worth, AWS prevents you from deleting an EBS snapshot that backs an AMI. So if you de-register the wrong one, you can still re-register it back from that. You'll get a different AMI ID though, and there is nothing I'm aware of that you can do about that.

Ah yeah, I recall that. The problem is the ID though, which yeah, you can't get back. Don't want to accidentally delete something people might be using in their scripts.
