What we have in mind is something like http://test.kernel.org/ for each patch set. I guess we will start humbly at the beginning :) Initially, the idea was to test the patch series we've been sending on lkml. But as we've been running tests on existing solutions, openvz, vserver, and our own prototype, we thought that extending to all was interesting and fair. The goal is to promote lightweight containers in the linux kernel, so this needs to be open. > Speaking of live migration, we in OpenVZ plan to release our > implementation as soon as next week. We've been working on that topic for a long time, we are very interested in seeing what you've acheived ! Migration tests is also an interesting topic we could add with time to the containers tests. thanks, C.
