Hi Folks,

I have ported memcached to power8 architecture (ppc64le) and have also 
dockerized it on Ubuntu 15.04. I want to contribute ported code and docker 
files back to memcached community.

I would like docker files to be part of source code at github (
https://github.com/memcached/memcached ), primarily for following reasons:
1.       It will make memcached build process self-contained as everything 
is available at a single source.
2.       Major Linux distributions like RedHat, SuSe, Ubuntu are planning 
to have self-contained repositories which will host the docker files along 
with the code itself.
3.       Many packages have begun packaging docker files along with the 
source code. So going ahead, memcached will not have to make any changes to 
adapt to new trend.

I welcome a discussion on this suggestion, so in order to cover a larger 
audience I am sending this mail to the memcached mailing list. I would also 
like to know if there is any preference about naming convention of docker 
files and their place in the source tree, for example, single directory 
containing docker files for different distributions, or, separate directory 
containing single docker file for each distribution etc.
