+|:::| |Versioning: Docker includes git-like capabilities for tracking successive versions of a container, inspecting the diff between versions, committing new versions, rolling back etc.|
+|:::| |Component reuse: Docker allows building or stacking of already created packages.  This allows re-use of a 'template' image, for creating other containers.|
+|:::| |Shared libraries:  There is already a public registry (http://index.docker.io/ ) where there are many thousands of containers that can be used; which have been created by other people.  **WARNING**:  These are not all secure; with many trojans!|
