I must be missing something, but it seems like CoreOS is just etcd and vanilla docker. I do like the idea of etcd, but is there some sort of API to control docker with it?
To me (docker user and contributor) CoreOS is simply the smallest distro which can run docker. That is already extremely nice when building minimal server images: faster boots, less disk usage and so on.
To me etcd is a completely separate (and also awesome) project. If I use it, it will be as an agent on all my host machines, including Ubuntu and red hat-based ones.
