As I was going through some email this morning I saw that the Spins
SIG is concerned that the Cloud SIG hasn't followed the Spins process
to get their "ec2" labeled Spin included in the spins-kickstart
collection in git:

If the Cloud group needs to see this Spin included in the F15 release,
then my recommendation is to start talking with the Spins SIG about
the process. I believe there's a deadline that's passed, although you
can request an exception and still make it into the release.
To the Spins SIG, I would also recommend keeping lines of
communication open if something goes wrong. A Cc: to the cloud@ list,
for example, would help raise the issue to more people in a way that
would help reach a solution faster.
Robotics may also fall into this category as well. They contacted us
a while back, but at the time we weren't functioning so getting them
approved was a problem. They are also a feature.
I am not sure if either group is looking to have an ISO produced or just
have their kickstart file included in one of the spin-kickstarts package.
The existing spins also need review. Some don't seem to be getting
maintenance, and at least design suit does follow the guidelines and
should be fixed, dropped or given an exception.
