Ohai,

I'm currently using a homegrown script to launch & bootstrap an EC2 windows server (using a combo of knife-ec2 & knife-windows)

It seems the latest (unreleased?) knife-ec2 plugin does support windows images, but I can't seem to figure out which template to use. It fails with

Bootstrapping Chef on ec2-54-228-110-177.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com
Can not find bootstrap definition for
ERROR: Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory

looking in the bootstrap directory, I only see

$ ls /Users/jeppe/.rbenv/versions/1.9.3-p327/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/chef-11.4.4/lib/chef/knife/bootstrap
archlinux-gems.erb   centos5-gems.erb     chef-full.erb        fedora13-gems.erb    ubuntu10.04-apt.erb  ubuntu10.04-gems.erb ubuntu12.04-gems.erb

and no windows template?

What are the incarnations needed to boot windows?
