Bug#727632: ITP: lmctfy - Google Container Stack



Package: wnpp

* Package name : lmctfy
* URL : https://github.com/google/lmctfy/
* License : Apache 2
* Description :

(quoting from the website, not necessarily going to be the package
description..)

lmctfy (pronounced lem-kut-fee) is the open source version of Google’s
container stack, which provides Linux application containers. These
containers allow for the isolation of resources used by multiple
applications running on a single machine. This gives the applications
the impression of running exclusively on a machine. The applications may
be container-aware and thus be able to create and manage their own
subcontainers.

The project aims to provide the container abstraction through a
high-level API built around user intent. The containers created are
themselves container-aware within the hierarchy and can be delegated to
be managed by other user agents.

lmctfy was designed and implemented with specific use-cases and
configurations in mind and may not work out of the box for all use-cases
and configurations. We do aim to support more use-cases and
configurations so please feel free to contribute patches or send e-mail
to the mailing list so that we may incorporate these into the roadmap.

lmctfy is released as both a C++ library and a CLI.
