Hi,

	At the very least there is no kernel code in mainline for
checkpoint/restart of containers at this time. We're still working on
patches for that feature. So that's one major difference between
"linux-containers" and openvz.

	I'm sure there are other differences which openvz and lxc folks
can point out but this is the one I'm presently most-keenly aware of. I
haven't had time to follow what's new with openvz so I'll leave the
rest of the comparison to other folks.

Cheers,
	-Matt Helsley
