I emailed the package owner well over 2 weeks ago now (1-31-2013). I would like to take over the package and have a working PKGBUILD already. I am the maintainer for ec2-api-tools already so would be nice to start getting the ami package back to being updated and useable on the AUR again. I have attached the PKGBUILD of what I am running locally on my system, in case the PKGBUILD needs to be reviewed.

Thank you for your time, vwyodajl

Disowned. Please provide a link to the package next time. Thanks.
