I wanted to share our recent work on Nova. This is another hypervisor for Nova that enables the use of LXC containers as VMs. There is also a Glance backend that makes the glue with Docker's Index remote service. I am sure it improves the use of LXC containers in OpenStack (as an alternative to libvirt).

The code is still pretty raw but I hope it'll be just the beginning, I'd be glad to get feedback from anyone interested.

I would really like to see the Docker provider for Vagrant happen. Vagrant is so easy to manage, and it would make Chef/Puppet provisioning easy. It also makes cross-platform and EC2/DigitalOcean deployment easy with their respective providers. (i.e. you can deploy an image to EC2 that then runs Docker containers)

I'm not sure it will, it seems stalled.
