[ANN] EC2 on Rails 0.9.9 released

[Paul Dowman]

Version 0.9.9 will be available soon when the rubyforge servers finish syncing. The only major change is Ubuntu 8.04. Please let me know if you find any issues.

AMI's:

* ami-c9bc58a0 (32-bit)

* ami-cbbc58a2 (64-bit)

Full list of changes:

* Updated to Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy"

* Added new required option to :ec2onrails_config in deploy.rb: ec2onrails_config[:archive_to_bucket_subdir] is used by the ec2onrails:db:archive Capistrano task. See http://ec2onrails.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/documentation/examples/deploy.rb

* Database backup script parameters changed, now takes --reset to reset the binary logs, no longer takes --no-reset (not resetting the binary logs is now the default)

* Database backup script no longer resets binary log file numbering

* Now includes Rails 2.1.0 (still includes 2.0.2 and 1.2.6)

* Incremental database backup frequency increased to every 5 minutes since it's very inexpensive to do

* No longer randomize passwords on startup since they're disabled already

* Installed git-core package

* MySQL backup and restore scripts now use /mnt/tmp instead of /tmp for temp files in case database dump files are huge

* MySQL backup now uses --create-options option on mysqldump to preserve MySQL-specific create table options

* Built with ec2ubuntu build script version 68 (http://alestic.com)

* Updated Capistrano tasks to work with Capistrano 2.4.3
