Hello Rob,

Yes this is additional information and is not any requirement for me. I was
not sure which branches were being maintained for F20. My interest was to
see if I could help the freeipa developers build rpms easily from git with
Docker images/containers. That is just about finished. My next thought was
about using a Docker containers to test code from a git working directory
quickly. That workflow could be a) to build rpms from a git commit, install
the generated rpms or b) push changed code into an existing freeipa
installation (probably not recommended but maybe necessary for testing). I
did read a couple of places that it seems to take less time and or RAM to
build code within Docker then other methods. Overall there does not seem to
be enough people that are doing it yet for a lot of data points. Does any
of that sound beneficial to the team?

Regards,
Curtis
