Michael Gummelt commented on MESOS-4698:
----------------------------------------
To "compose" means to combine two things to form something else. This
containerizer isn't doing that. It's using EITHER the mesos or the docker
containerizer. That's not composition. Even if we can't agree on the
definition of the work, just as evidence that it's confusing, both me and my
peer at Typesafe independently interpreted "composition" to mean something like
nesting.
Also, it's inconsistent to list it in the docs as a containerizer type, then
not include it in the list of `--containerizer` options.

> Both I and my peer at Typesafe have found the containerizer docs confusing
> (The 'Composing Containerizer' part)
> https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/master/docs/containerizer.md
> "composing" suggests that I can launch tasks in nested containers
> Also, the structure of the docs suggest that there's a third container type
> called "composing", which is not true, or it's at least not exposed in the
> UI.
