Title:
  Provide Ubuntu EC2 kernels with 1000Hz timer (for VOIP/Asterisk)

Status in Official Ubuntu Images on EC2:
  Invalid
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  One popular use of Ubuntu on EC2 is to run VOIP software like
  Asterisk.  In order to achieve decent quality audio with this
  application it needs to run on a kernel compiled with a 1000Hz timer.

  Amazon provides a single 2.6.18 kernel compiled with 1000Hz timer
  which is what folks are currently using to run Asterisk on Ubuntu on
  EC2, but this is somewhat outdated.

  Though I understand that a slower timer is generally better for server
  performance and thus should not be the default for the standard Ubuntu
  on EC2 kernel, it would help a lot of folks if separate 1000Hz kernels
  were made available for running with the official Ubuntu images.
