 Hi LXC users,

I am extremely excited to announce the launch of Flockport.com to this
list, its home so to speak.

Flockport.com was created to let users discover, download and share
portable and easy to use Linux containers (LXC) that can be deployed in
seconds.

Flockport hosts an LXC repo for Debian Wheezy that provides all the
features of LXC out of the box - yah! like in Ubuntu. Flockport also
provides a Flockport utility to let users view and download Flockport
containers directly to their systems.

At launch Flockport.com provides over 50 containers
<http://www.flockport.com/containers> of some of the most popular web
applications.

There is a significant information gap on LXC in the marketplace that
Flockport hopes to address.

Flockport wants to make containers accessible to a much wider audience and
articulate and provide a broader use of containers as lightweight, portable
and extremely fast alternative to virtualization.

We have comprehensive documentation on setting up and using LXC
<http://www.flockport.com/lxc-guide>.
We would absolutely love your feedback and thoughts. Thanks Stephane and
Serge for the fantastic blog posts! and Dr Rami Rosen for the wonderful LXC
presentations!

We have also put up an indepth piece on the key difference between LXC and
Docker and would love for you to weigh in.
