  Hum, right, but in the meantime lxc was added which is also a 
(linux specific) container system, with the advantage of not requiring
a patched kernel (only a very recent one).
  I have no idea if lxc and V-Server are competing or merging, I would
hope for the latter since they operate in the same space and the same
set of constraints (at least from my viewpoint).
