Be are basing our implementation on the use of _oc_ which is not available 
in Minikube. So in this particular case we don't have much to backport.

Sure, but consistency with Minikube cannot be the only goal. There are other
considerations as well. 

On other names we for example aligned with Minikube. We called the extension
mechanism also 'addons', even though they work differently.

Minikube implemented now the ability to create multiple instances. Something 
we followed and had input to. The plan is to align as much as possible there as 
well. So we are for sure interested to keep consistency. However, in some
cases it also makes sense to do things differently.

We follow issues which are relevant to us, however, have not contributed 
enough to Minikube. Moving forward it would be nice to see some more 
collaboration on code level as well. However, all the work up to Minishift
1.0.0 barely touched Minikube inherited code. There are only a few things 
we could have contributed back so far. Two come to mind:

* Driver initialisation (together with the ability to pass through driver 
specific options)
* Host folder framework

Both things would be good fits for Minikube as well. Up to know we were 
really hands on to just get Minishift 1.0.0 and CDK 3.0.0 ready. Moving
forward we can have a discussion now whether we should try to get for 
example the things mentioned above into Minikube. However, this will
take quite some doing and will slow us down with feature development for
Minishift.
