Amazon EKS new region update, eu-west-1 (Ireland)

GREAT NEWS - Amazon EKS have added a new region (the primary region for our company) - eu-west-1 (Ireland).

Unfortunately, I didn’t see this region in Rancher, so I created an update with a pull request:

github.com/rancher/kontainer-engine

Updated AWS EKS regions to include eu-west-1

rancher:master ← SGudbrandsson:patch-1

This update uses EKS worker AMI v23 for eu-west-1 (Ireland). Other regions were… not updated since the whole cluster would require an update for all worker nodes before adding new ones. See note from Amazon: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/eks-optimized-ami.html > **Important** > > These AMIs require the latest AWS CloudFormation worker node template. > You cannot use these AMIs with a previous version of the worker node > template; they will fail to join your cluster. Be sure to upgrade any > existing AWS CloudFormation worker stacks with the latest template > (URL shown below) before you attempt to use these AMIs. > > > https://amazon-eks.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/cloudformation/2018-08-30/amazon-eks-nodegroup.yaml

Who can I poke to get this into production after tesing?
