I had already seen the roadmap but in context of previous posts by Dietmar I was under the impression that the core PVE team still did not think that LXC was ready for production. E.g. AFAIK live migration does not yet work.
But it seems that they are doing things a little different for the v4.x release. I recall with v3.0 they had it pretty much ready to go with the release of Wheezy... It also looks like they are going to try to sidestep the systemd issue (by not using it).
I think that with the success of Squeeze LTS we can expect a Wheezy LTS too. And with additional work needing to be done before they can release the v4.x stable branch I think that v3.x will live a lot longer than the v2.x branch did after the release of Wheezy. Personally I won't be rushing to upgrade any v3.x PVE servers to v4.0. We have at least a year, but more likely 5-6 yrs (assuming a Wheezy LTS) for them to sort it out! :)
Depending on how long it takes, who knows, maybe the new OVZ version comes out and they change their mind (probably not but who knows...?) I would anticipate too that they will provide a script to migrate an OVZ container to an LXC one. They are very similar (as you probably know LXC relies on the kernel patches in mainline that the OVZ devs got merged).
As TurnKey already provides LXC builds it should be a fairly trivial matter to add LXC images to PVE the same way that the OVZ ones are there (assuming that PVE team don't change too much).
As for TKLBAM on your existing containers, it's installed already! You just need to enable it...
Thanks for the links...
