I'd vote in favor of including the python-docker-py package for users of Atomic Host and the Ansbile docker module. There have been more than one instance I've been involved in where someone in IRC is reporting that "Ansible doesn't work on Atomic Host" because they were trying to use the docker module and their understanding was the docker was "the way" to do things in Atomic. While kubernetes is great, I'd prefer to offer the userbase more freedom to choose how they deploy and manage docker containers on an Atomic Host and Ansbile seems to be quite popular among the Atomic Host userbase (just in general, not specifically for docker deployments) so I don't think it's an unrealistic expectation that the Ansible docker module works out of the box. Just my opinion though, I'd be curious of others opinions on the topic as well. -AdamM
