Hi,

I am not ertain that the future of Docker Inc. is tied to the future of
docker. Nevertheless, I have to agree that since Redhat is throwing all
its weight behind podman, it will most likely become the de-facto
standard. So we could add some podman/buildah/skopeo questions.

I am not so sure whether to further offset the balance between Xen and
Qemu than already planned (we are coming from a 50:50 split and much
higher weight). I may have seen little Xen use lately, but I think
reports of its death are premature.

Kubernetes is a quite complex (and fast changing) piece of software.
So I would further expand on it on this revision.
As Dirk put it. At some point we have to start writing questions.
I am fine with reducing Xen by one point and introducing podman on an
awareness level. Maybe a bit more if we deduct a point from LXD.

Regards,
Markus
