Has any one tried building a docker image for Windows (7.1/8)? The closest answer available for me is from ScottGu's Blog. See here http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/docker-and-microsoft-integrating-docker-with-windows-server-and-microsoft-azure

But I was wondering, is there any one else tried to build the same?
