[Blueprint servercloud-q-lxc] Lxc work for Q

[Serge Hallyn]

Blueprint changed by Serge Hallyn:

Whiteboard changed:
  Topics:
   - apparmor: outlook for stacked profiles?
     - 12.10 work may be purely prep work in apparmor package/kernel
   - seccomp2
   - support for pre-start scripts (like initramfs)
   - support for config #includes   (*1)
   - encrypted root fs support   (*2)
   - switch to git back-end for UDD?
   - http://skliarie.blogspot.com/2011/11/llslxclvmsnapshots.html - lvm manipulation inside guests
   - /lxc-shared support through lxc config (or the OpenVZ way with a /var/lib/lxc/<container>>/mount
   directory used instead of /usr/lib/lxc/)
   - lxc-debconf
+  - multiarch fallout - move lxc-init to /sbin?
   - kernel features:
    - cgroup fake root
    - devices namespace, syslog namespace
    - user namespace (if ready - but likely 13.04 work)
   - lxc apport info
   - hook the high level testsuite up to a jenkins instance
   - support for fedora 17 templates  (just needs to be done)
   - Make liblxc public and create initial language binding (python)
     - Export new higher level functions in the library so it's possible to easily do the same thing as the tools by just calling library functions
     - Rebase the tools on these functions, possibly converting some of the shell tools to C in the process
     - Write a python binding module (_lxc) and python module (lxc) to provide a user/scripter friendly way of accessing all of LXC's features
     - Rebase arkose on the new python module instead of the current subprocess calls.
  
  (*1) - may fall in nicely after a code restructuring
  (*2) - probably best done as a pre-start hook
