7 Interesting. I hadn't found a good interface to containers and
8 clone(2) besides Docker. Of course, I didn't look very hard. I half
9 expect a "new" process model to develop around the kernel namespaces,
10 as people realize GID separation only is too coarse.

12 I still see some odd claims about container security, though: claiming
13 containers are more secure than user accounts still seems odd to me,
14 as if you don't trust the kernel to enforce user accounts, why trust
15 it to enforce namespace separation?
