The Linux Containers project has
announced the addition of
Incus, which is a fork of LXD
5.16 started by Aleksa Sarai. Incus was created in response to Canonical’s removal of LXD from Linux
Containers.
After some discussion with Aleksa and a fair bit of encouragement from our
community, we have made the decision to take Incus under the umbrella of
Linux Containers and will commit to it the infrastructure which was
previously made available to LXD.The goal of Incus is to provide a fully community led alternative to
Canonical’s LXD as well as providing an opportunity to correct some
mistakes that were made during LXD’s development which couldn’t be
corrected without breaking backward compatibility.In addition to Aleksa, the initial set of maintainers for Incus will
include Christian Brauner, Serge Hallyn, Stéphane Graber and Tycho
Andersen, effectively including the entire team that once created LXD.
