Docker-machine is now officially in maintenance mode: docker/machine#4537.

We should consider using one of its alternatives, such as https://github.com/machine-drivers/machine (machine-drivers/machine#4) or maybe move to a different approach such as using linuxkit (https://github.com/linuxkit/linuxkit).

How is this being perceived? Do we have something already in the roadmap? What would be the main challenges going forward with each of these?

We haven't been able to experiment with any of the alternatives. I think the main challenge is to find a library that is able to abstract away many cloud providers behind a common interface.

If docker/machine still receives bug fixes, I guess it's okay to keep it until an obviously better solution is created by the community.
