Hello Olivier,

Yeah, that was my impression as well. I haven't used docker so far,
how far do you get when you just try the LXC runner against a docker
instance? As long as you can start these with lxc-start-ephemeral (or
lxc-clone/start), they should be fine? (Assuming that they are Debian
based, of course)
For the record: It's unlikely that I'll work on that myself, but I'll
happily review and integrate such a runner, provided it comes with
good test coverage.
Thanks,
Martin
