I will try to attend, is this conference hosted by Easybuild on Google Hangout.
It would be interesting to see how docker works in RHEL7. I recall that Redhat is now providing their own docker images, I would suspect they would be taking security into consideration.

If so, I don’t see any support for creating docker images from eb directly. I think Singularity is a more interesting prospect here (come to the EasyBuild User Meeting in February, one of the developers will be there). I don't know any large HPC sites that allow docker containers (mainly due to security problems).
