My hope is they at least get LSW (Linux Subsystem for Windows) at least to the point where Linux containers can build/run in windows. When I tried it a couple months ago, I was very disappointed in the weirdness with filesystem access from the GUI.

It should be good enough for docker usage, and am excited about that option.

There seem to be no current plans to ship LSW on Windows Server though, so it does not seem to be going to happen soon. Also LSW has a lot of bug fixing before it is ready for that.

A LOT of bug fixing... but then again, a lot of those issues may be less of an issue wrt having enough for docker/lxc container support.
