I use Jenkins now for Android, iOS, OS X, Linux, & Windows builds.  Jenkins + 
Docker sounds interesting. I assume one advantage is it is light weight 
compared to having to store a bunch of large VM images?

Can Docker be used to deploy OS X Xcode and Windows Visual Studio build slaves? 
 Or is the Docker engine always running a Linux system of some sort regardless 
if the engine host is Windows?
