F24 is set to release on June 7, docker makes a major release each three months or so, and 1.9 is already three months old... I don't think it's possible to fully shield users from the fast dev pace of docker while keeping fedora reasonably up-to-date. Docker just moves fast, we should kick our testing into a higher gear to keep up. Jason > > -- > Josh Berkus > Project Atomic > Red Hat > >
