+## Using array values
+
+Some templates call for array values. You can use template variables for these,
+too. For example, the `amazon-ebs` builder has a configuration parameter called
+`ami_regions`, which takes an array of regions that it will copy the AMI to.
+You can parameterize this by using a variable that is a list of regions, joined
+by a `,`. For example:

+    },
+    "builders": [
