Hi isaac,

Great script!
So I have the script to run in a cronjob. I run the script every day, with a retention of 7 days.

I also run it once a week, with a retention of 28 days. The problem is that the script that runs daily, will delete the weekly AMI's I want to keep for 28 days.

Does your script have a functionality for running it with different retention days? I wonder if it´s possible to copy the script and change the naming scheme, so that the two separate scripts won´t delete each others AMI´s. My scripting is not good enough to do this however. Would you know of a solution for this?
