Actually, docker and LXC are two difference projects maintained by two
different groups of people. So it has not "moved" to docker.
I have studied docker source code, and there is nothing they do you can't do
using LXC and basic bash commands (except for their repository). You can think
about docker as a wrapper of LXC serving the purpose of process isolation for
the cloud computing world.
Both LXC and docker have different end goals so it's hard to compare them. One
thing: docker doesn't use template explicitly but images pulled by docker are
basically images created by a LXC template. So docker replaced lxc-create (that
generate an OS) by docker pull (that go get an OS over the network)
