[StarCluster] Question about star cluster AMIs

Hi all,

I'm a new star cluster user, and a new member to this list.  Not sure what
the etiquette is for emailing the list.

I have the following question:  When I perform "starcluster listpublic", I
see a list of AMI's (see command output below).  However, I have no idea
how each of these AMIs is configured.  For example, I need GPU support for
my work, so I would like my AMI to have CUDA pre-installed, and for it to
support being launched with the AWS GPU instances (eg, "g2.2xlarge").
Where can I get detailed information about each of these AMI's??

Thanks so much,
Avner
