I'd also highlight the integration with current distribution build tools like Koji.  (The upstream page does, but it's worth repeating here).

This is also proposed to be deployed in Fedora:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Layered_Docker_Image_Build_Service

Another important differentatior I see with atomic-reactor is that one case it supports is having artifacts (ideally sources) stored in a buildsystem-controlled store, as distinct from general Internet access.  This is the equivalent of the "lookaside" cache Fedora uses for source code.

So I think moving it into the projectatomic/ namespace is a great idea.
