   On the docker topic, as I understand it, the problem is advertising a third 
party image. Clearly, there is no requirement to even have a docker image. For 
example, Kafka produces none, though the commercial company behind it does.
   
   I can grok not wanting to be a sneaky ad for a commercial package, but I 
don't know where exactly a problem would be in mentioning images that predated 
apache and are completely non-commercial in nature. It seems odd that Apache 
would actually have a problem with a healthy ecosystem that produces tools for 
it to the point where it intentionally wants you to make it hard to find them. 
However, we seem to be in a culture which is against things and I am tired of 
arguing against the grain for sensible pragmatism.
   
   I think the work and confusion involved in splitting our docker images 
between the openzipkin namespace and apache namespace is more of a burden than 
instructing people manually how to find docker images. What that seems to mean 
is deleting references to the openzipkin images until the leadership in ASF 
decide that OSS ecosystems are nothing to be afraid of.
