Thanks Richard. I found the following questions in the etherpad:

In that case use Magnum, and have the user start a Docker Swarm bay. Then they 
can point their docker client directly at the swarm master using the value in 
the api_address attribute in the bay. I can make a demo of this if there is 
interest. It can be of node count 1 if you only want a single server, and that 
can be later adjusted if a larger bay is desired.

The rationale here is that the user will end up with a Docker API and a place 
to point a native docker client. When the bay fills up, it can be easily scaled 
out without reconfiguring the client, or bouncing around between different 
hosts like you would need to do if you were using something like Docker Machine 
with no Swarm. If you care about container placement, you can tag your swarm 
nodes, and use scheduling hints to cause the desired placement among available 
hosts.

Magnum bays are properly multi-tenant isolated, provided that your nova service 
produces instances that are properly isolated. If you use a nova virt driver 
that produces bare metal servers or virtual machines, then it will be. With 
Magnum Docker containers can be completely managed by the cloud user, and the 
nova instances can be managed by them as well, if desired. This is important in 
order to allow a full range of capabilities, as some things involve accessing 
the host. One example is how to debug problems. The ability to log into the 
nova instance and poke around with a full range of debugging tools is very 
handy.

Adrian
