I truly don't know which is worse: Developers pretending to be sysadmins
or sysadmins (if you can call them that) being lazy. I bet that a lot of
the good old fashioned admins got replaced by a new devop who can
deploy everything really fast cutting every corner possible. And people
still want it to be ported to OpenBSD.

Kind figured. To me, any system that need to abstract how it's even
deployed, is not a good system.

 b) if you don't use their official Docker image, the user community will 
 simply refuse to help you over at http://meta.discourse.org.

What help? It's a docker container, ain't it? It will never give you
problems. ;-)

p.s.: I've recently installed gitlab from source and it's also an rails
app. But they have a very good documentation on how to do it, and you
can understand most of what is happening. Even though they are always
advising you to use their Omnibus package.

I think that says enough to answer your question.

Sort of, but https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8480433 does mention sysjail 
for OpenBSD. That post is quite old, so maybe things have changed since then?

Thanks!

the short answer is no, docker does not work on openbsd.

if you are interested in making it work, please do so and send a diff.

 Are there any efforts being made to port the FreeBSD Docker port to OpenBSD?

Should there be any effort to port some trendy this year marketed
commercially supported tool while the entire OpenBSD feature set
totally obsoletes the tool on application design stage, or is there any
good reason to be this effort?

You know complexity and tool mixes enforce complexity and reliability
problems to all levels including the personnel installing and
maintaining the software stack, despite what marketing material says.

 Wish I didn't have to ask, but it's the only way I can install Discourse 
 (https://github.com/discourse/discourse) without being shunned by its 
 community (https://forums.docker.com/t/solutions-for-docker-on-freebsd/2082/).

Maybe you don't have to ask after all ;-) Let me rephrase:

A good idea is to follow the developer instructions and install on
Linux and/or FreeBSD, or rather the operating systems and environments
used by the application developers, otherwise you're depraving yourself
of their help and support, or would you think of it as dependability.

Optimistically, OpenBSD has always solved problems elegantly and
efficiently, so look forward in the future for the sustainable way to
solve the problems your question relates to. This future may be now,
depending how good the application developers understand OpenBSD and
what this gives us as correct solutions.

Not that I know of, but I'm not a dev and might be wrong. I do follow
@tech, and didn't saw anything docker related, ever since I'm on the
list. My personal opinion is that OpenBSD shouldn't even get near
docker. But hey, it's my opinion.

 From what I read on their site, they use off the shelf software that
might have a package/port on OpenBSD. You could succeed in installing it
outside a docker. Unless their software is stupid and try to verify if
you're inside a docker and refuses to run if not.

They just use RoR, and it definitely run on OpenBSD.

Do you know what these docker ready images sound to me? Laziness. Truth
is, we have an avalanche of developers that are empowered by these so
called devops tools, puppet, chef, docker ready images, etc. But they
grow accustomed with this so called readiness and easiness that they
never bother to know what's under the hood. Heck, they don't even bother
to know if the under the hood is secure. These tools certainly have
their use on the development phase of a project. And puppet and friends
certainly make the job of admins easier. The difference, as always, lies
on who is using.

You see the OP grow so fond of this easiness that he comes to the point
of asking on this list (without even searching first) if OpenBSD will
import the FreeBSD docker port, so that he can simply take a image and
install something, that can, with some work and thinking, be installed
on the metal. This is wrong. And is also part of the security problem.

Well, sort of. You can install it outside Docker but a) Discourse is not a
