Dear mailing list,

There are a few PR on nixpkgs introducing some exciting new features to nix 
containers that are inactive for some time.

Quicklist:

#3021 Improvements for declarative nixos containers [1]
Brings unique unit per container, new network options and other improvements.
Looks almost ready to merge (conflicts with master).

#7993 nixos-container: support user-defined extra binds [2]
Brings shared folders between host and containers.
There is a consideration about RequireMountsFor, but #3021 unique unit per 
container could help.

#6208 IPv6 containers and NAT [3]
Brings ipv6 containers.
There is a consideration about forward ports option parsing and it conflicts 
with master.

It is such a waste to let these PR slowly dying as they seem so close to merge.

I hope this message can help to bring some light back on these PR and identify 
the potential remaining issues.

Best regards,
Eric
