I am on 1.5.2 version and I see aws-java-sdk version used is 1.2.1. I am looking for VMImport functionality accessible from jclouds. This feature is available in aws-java-sdk from 1.3.2 onwards.

Looks like vm import only supports Windows 2003/2008:

Yes, thats true, but that is the only way we can import any existing Windows VM. I am not aware of any other workaround.
