I was speaking of sysutils/docker-freebsd which remained BROKEN for
years and was eventually removed from the ports tree. I'll certainly
look at sysutils/docker and sysutils/docker-compose, thanks for the
hint. I hope it is THE docker (/me is starting poudriere...)

But jails lack a repository of ready-made containers with applications.
To be honest, jails lack even a decent management infrastructure. Yes we
have bits like "pkg -j", "bectl jail", "bsdinstall jail",
"freebsd-update -b"  but nobody cared to build a convenient
infrastructure out of all this, not to speak about a repository of
ready-made jails for different purposes.

bhyve is great, that's true. If it could also run Windows guests on
paravirtualized disks (not emulated SATA), I'd be completely happy.
