That plugin already has many thousands of installations and the TLS support in particular I think would be useful as well. Have you also seen the Docker build step plugin, I believe that might overlap with your work as well, and already has a few thousand installations. There's some really good work here and by merging efforts with the existing Jenkins/Docker plugins I think we can improve the usage for many existing users and help attract new ones. Let me know what you think, if you're open to it I'm happy to help where I can. If you're not keen on merging, then I suppose I'll make a frowney face and setup the hosting, etc. Cheers - R.
