Hi together,

I just learned about Docker and would like to share this info with you:
https://www.docker.io/

The idea is that you have a very basic ubuntu installation just like in a virtual machine, but it interfaces to the pre-installed system so that
image files become very small - that's what I understood. This could be a very nice container for reproducibility. What do you think?

Best,
Daniel
