Details are at docker.io/governance That site also provides a place to submit comments on the proposal itself and nominations for the board.

Every piece of news coming out about Docker convinces me it's "the future". This is in the same way Java was the future in 1995, which may not seem like a glowing comparison, but considering how that worked out in terms of useful impact (if not great for the parent company) it's a compliment.

Very good to see them take this stuff seriously early on, and even though sticking to some of those principles sounds difficult they're making all the right noises.

Ya, it is a very impressive project. :)

I just hope they can sustain it long term.

Really? Docker just seems like the age old jail idea + marketing money and tools. What's so futuristic about it? Literally nothing it does is novel.

I guess the novel part is that it's actually being used.

Can I have some of this marketing money you're referring to?

edit: But more seriously, not to feed the troll or anything, but, the 'Sun has been doing this with zones for years! it proved all of this shit long ago!' is a little tired.

If you'd like to go deep on why people are interested and why this is catching on, let's have a chat. nick@docker.com.

Hey duaneb, I'm running marketing for Docker since the begining of the project. I have a budget close to 0 (apart for pizzas and beer for Docker meetups in the Bay area :)

That being said in re difference between Docker and LXC/Jails/Zones

* Docker is a whole platform, that makes containers easy to use and portable.

* We’ve added security, versioning etc...

* Our platform has an index of images, where they can be shared and downloaded.

* In addition to the index we offer image management functionality: creation, changes, storing, sharing, updating, etc of images...that at runtime, run inside containers

Hope this helps
