Hi,

At first LXC seams to be a great work from what we have read already.

There are still a few open questions for us (we are currently running  
dozens of OpenVZ Hardwarenodes).

1) OpenVZ in the long-term seams to be a dead end. Will LXC be a  
feature complete replacement for OpenVZ in the 1.0 Version?

As of the current version
2) is there IPTable support, any sort of control like the OpenVZ  
IPTable config.
3) Is there support for tun/tap device
4) is there support for correct memory info and disk space info (are  
df and top are showing the container ressources or the resources of  
the hardwarenode)
5) is there something compared to the fine grained controll about  
memory resources like vmguarpages/privmpages/oomguarpages in LXC?
6) is LXC production ready?

Thanks in Advance, and we are looking forward to switch to Linux  
Containers when all Questions are answered with yes :-)

Regards,
Christian
