I mean lxc was integrated into 2.6.27 kernel, this is october 2008
!!!, nearly three years from now, into the
stable branch, but is not usable in production in 2011 !!

There is already some _great_ features when you look at /cgroup
directory (memory, cpu shares etc),
I do not anderstand why so simple (user point of view) problems are
not solved !

Yes there is openvz and vserver ...
