Hi! Thanks for your update.

IT would be good if you could take some notes, say in a blog or in the
Taverna wiki about the different possibilities for communicating with
the Docker engine.  I think we need to think about how it would work
on different operating systems and what needs to be set up to enable
Taverna to talk to Docker. E.g. in Windows and OSX you may have a
"docker" command line, but the docker engine runs on a Virtual Machine
with a different IP.

(Let's not consider Windows 10 preview's native Docker for now)

Let us know if you want access to
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TAVERNADEV - I believe
Gale can grant you access once you have registered.
