To think a little more left field, with our continued investment in K8’s, maybe 
we can look into that area?
Run tests in parallel using K8’s?

But I am also supportive of fixing the tests that we can run them in parallel 
without the extra container scaffolding.

I'm not a big fan of forking the Docker plugin and making it a new Geode
submodule. This approach kind of flies in the face of the intentions of OSS
in general. For example, we want folks contributing to Apache Geode rather
than forking Geode to create their own new project while never giving back
to this project.

If the original Docker plugin project refuses to maintain or take on new
contributors then some of us should help lead the creation of a new Docker
plugin repo in Github that is independent of Apache Geode. This way it
becomes a new living Docker plugin project that many contributors can
become involved in. It also becomes valuable to more projects than just
one. I've seen this happen with a number of OSS projects in which the
original maintainer of a project disappears or leaves and I think this is
generally accepted as the best approach for reviving a dead project that no
new committers can be added to.

I agree, if we want to keep using the plugin it does make sense to open source 
the fork outside of Geode.
