As I have stated in the ticket (and it being good enough to repeat it here):
I have been working on a solution that will enable users (developers/adopters/etc.) to generate containers, that either will be based: - on a branch (trunk or whatever) without plugins and git-aware - on a branch with plugins git-aware - on a release without plugins - on a release with plugins And for the latter two I am looking at how to have it production-ready. Having docker hub working with it is a good idea. I started testing that angle a short while ago. It is an additional means to spread, and enables the project to control/direct some flow of dissemination. And for some (developers and/or potential adopters) it is a starting point.
