get from docker hub:
docker pull osblinnikov/rosdocker
docker run -p 6080:6080 -v `pwd`/workspaceSrc:/home/ros/workspace/src -t -i osblinnikov/rosdocker
or to build container from dockerfile, type command in current directory:
git clone https://github.com/osblinnikov/rosDocker.git
cd rosDocker
docker build -t osblinnikov/rosdocker .
To start the fresh built container simply type:

Now it's time to test ros installation
Browse http://127.0.0.1:6080/vnc.html

Be Happy!
If you'd like to configure launch steps of the container, fix a startcontainer
script and rebuild the container
Commit:
docker commit --author="FIXME" --message="FIXME" FIXME_75f05d8f7da3 osblinnikov/ros:FIXME
Note, for starting master and child nodes directly from the container console (not from vnc) you can use preinstalled tmux multiplexer of consoles
Figure out how to export ROS dynamic tcp/udp ports from docker container. Seems like coreos-rudder can help with providing virtual network
