Yeah, I asked on #CoreOS and they said it required systemd. Since RH
bought CoreOS I'm not sure how Docker will fare. Maybe they will win
the container wars, maybe not. I can see systemd or something like it
being useful for a container host OS. At that point it becomes a
question of "where in the stack I want to work" since I don't have
enough brain cells for the entire stack.

Any insights on what container platform will get the majority of
paying market share?
