I don't think I'm going to do this right now. I'm happy to revisit if others feel it might be useful.

@theacodes I ended up needing this for a bunch of different things, so I've set up https://cloud.docker.com/repository/docker/thekevjames/nox which auto-builds each released nox version alongside all currently-supported Python versions (ie. 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7). If this comes up in the future, but you don't want to handle this yourself, you're welcome to link to that project.

You should be able to use thekevjames/nox:{any-valid-nox-version} out-of-the-box, including versions released under the nox-automation name.

@TheKevJames awesome! If you would like, it'd be cool to add that to the documentation as an alternative way to install nox. What do you think?

[TheKevJames]

@theacodes absolutely, that sounds good to me!

[theacodes]

If you want, @TheKevJames, you can send a PR, otherwise, I'll get to this the next time I do a round of changes on Nox. :)

[TheKevJames]

@theacodes Sure thing! I threw up a quick PR #164 for your reviewing pleasure.

i'm in a situation (compilation of CPython3.7 fails weirdly on Ubuntu 20.10) where my approach would rather be to extend nox so that Docker/Moby (and perspectively other container solutions) can be used as venv_backend. i haven't looked into the codebase to estimate the effort yet, so my question is whether that is something you'd be generally interested in.
