Hi, all.

Does it make sense to add such a driver? I can't say I have a big picture
of docker functionality in mind but at least container lifecycle management
and container networking are common to both.


I think we had something in virt-tools that was able to pull an image from
docker hub and run it with lxc.  Or was it part of sandbox?  I don't know.

Anyway, what would be the benefit of that?


We wanted to add Windows containers to the libvirt API. They are available
under docker API thus the idea to add a docker driver. The docker itself
uses some API to manage Windows containers but this API lacks documentation
thus again the willingness to use just docker API to bring Windows containers
to libvirt.


Oh, so with that we would be able to manage native containers on Windows?  That
might be interesting then.  I did not know about that because last time I heard
about containers on Windows docker was running a Linux VM in which it spawned
the containers =D  I did not know there's something new now.
