## Support for the ap-southeast-2 region

With the [availability](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2016/06/aws-lambda-available-in-asia-pacific-sydney/) of AWS Lambda in the Asia Pacific (Sydney) region, Rack now fully supports ap-southeast-2!

Thanks to [@rjocoleman](https://github.com/rjocoleman) for bringing it to our attention and for PR [#806](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/806)!

## Enhancements

- Ability to wait for a promotion to finish. This can come in handy when running convox commands within a CI/CD pipeline. For more information, see PR [#805](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/805). Thanks to [@ddollar](https://github.com/ddollar):

```auto
$ convox releases promote RPJBPUCVHUQ -a httpd --wait
Promoting RPJBPUCVHUQ... UPDATING
Waiting for RPJBPUCVHUQ... OK

$ convox deploy --wait
# Some build output here
...
Promoting RGAEABKZYTI... UPDATING
Waiting for RGAEABKZYTI... OK

```

- Get correct container IP for v2 networks. See PR [#795](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/795) and thanks to [@cleblanc87](https://github.com/cleblanc87)!
- Two related changes. See PR [#803](https://github.com/convox/rack/pull/803) for more information:
  - Ensure the release created by `convox env set` uses the currently promoted build
  - Ensure `convox run --release` uses the correct build and environment.
