Good points, Dan and John.<br>
<br>
At this point it may be useful to see who is actually using<br>
nova-docker. Can folks who are using any version of nova-docker,<br>
please speak up with a short description of their use case?<br>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:monospace,monospace">I'm using nova-docker, started out as just learning the pieces... ended up being useful for some internal test and dev work on my side. Including building/shipping apps to customers that I
used to send out as qcows. I could certainly do this without nova-docker and go straight to docker, but this is "more fun", and fits with my existing workflow/usage of OpenStack for various things.</div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:monospace,monospace">Also FWIW Magnum currently is way overkill for what I'm doing, just like some other projects. I do plan to check that out before long, but for now it's a bit overkill for me.</div>
