Yup. External containerizer has been deprecated and removed. The direction is to maintain only one containerizer in the future, and make that containerizer better and supports various containerization requests. If so, would extending the Unified Containerizer be the correct way to go > about adding LXC/LXD support? Yes, I would prefer exploring this direction. But even before that, it would be nice to understand the motivation for using lxd. I'd prefer we find out the feature gap and augment unified containerizer to fill the gap. - Jie On Wed, Oct 5, 2016 at 3:10 PM, Tom Barber <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello folks, > > I've been Googling Mesos container support a bit recently, I see support > for Mesos(AppC) and Docker in the latest versions. > > I'm looking to add LXC/LXD support, POC initially then hopefully bake it > into some Mesos libraries.
