The Smartling API does not accept the string 'other' as a section header. It strips the header out altogether, breaking i18n for strings in that section (and sometimes resulting in an unparseable file.)

Copy an EC2 EBS AMI from us-west-1 to us-east-1
#!/bin/bash
# Copied in its entirety from instructions by Eric Hammond (@esh) at http://alestic.com/2010/10/ec2-ami-copy
# Thanks for a very useful post!
# Some additional notes for myself:
# - Be sure to configure the target instance's firewall to allow port 22 access from the source_ip (or from 0.0.0.0/0)
# - Be sure that ssh-agent is running and that the identity file for the imported keypair has been added to it with ssh-add
