With a small thing, though.

We have agreed that we should submit infrastructure pieces one by one,
like daniel propose. These pieces are common for all approaches and they
 will increase the probability of the inclusion of the main piece. We
also agree, that the net namespace management mechanism should be the
same for all containers.
As for approach, we have agreed that we MUST have a second option as
there is a great probability that Dave Miller will reject Eric patches
again and again.
