Unable to launch EC2 images with security group or user data

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Typica 1.7
Changes in rev 312 broke the image launch, "LaunchSpecification." is
prepended to UserData and SecurityGroup parameters when it shouldn't.

Related to Issue #90, may be the same cause

I'll do some testing, but look at page 172 of the ec2 API reference. It 
describes it as I have it coded. Now, 
sometimes the docs are wrong.

On those two params, I hadn't removed the "LaunchConfiguration." string in 
favor of a passed in prefix on the 
method that setup query params for spot and regular instance requests. Fixed in 
SVN

David Thx for the quick response. I have confirmed this is working.

Any sense of when a new release will be cut with this fix?  It is a fairly 
major problem to not be able to run instances with security groups.  I'm using 
trunk for now, but wondering how soon you think you'll cut another release 
(maybe a 1.7.1 release?).  Thanks.
