Nicer looking Debian headline on AWS marketplace



Hi,

Currently, Debian HVM image is shown in AWS marketplace like the following and I would like to suggest minor improvements:


Debian GNU/Linux - (HVM)
***** (1) | Version 8.0.0 | Sold by Debian
...
Linux/Unix, Debian 8.0.0 | 64-bit Amazon Machine Image (AMI)


1. It's more conventional to have just "(HVM)" appended instead of "- (HVM)"

2. Other AMIs include the major version (in our case "8") in the title

3. I think it would be nice to include the codename (Jessie) in the title too.

4. Other AMI sometimes include "64-bit" but since 64-bit AMIs are the norm and 32-bit are the exceptions nowadays, it's better not to include it in the title.

5. Version "8.0.0" is used only in Debian cd-images, nowhere else. It's much more natural to have the official release number "8.0".

So my proposal is:


Debian GNU/Linux 8 “Jessie” (HVM)
(70) | Version 8.0 | Sold by Debian
...
Linux/Unix, Debian 8.0 | 64-bit Amazon Machine Image (AMI)


All the best,
Ognyan
