I can try :)  The project's usage pattern has evolved during incubation.

Here's what I think OpenWhisk is currently doing with dockerhub.

1. CI/CD.  We have automation (Jenkins/TravisCI) that automatically
publishes images to dockerhub from the master branch of many of our git
repos.  These images are all tagged with git commit hash style tags.  The
'latest' tag is always an alias to the most recent of these CI/CD tags.
These images are not intended for users.

2. Convenience images that are built from Apache source releases.  These
images are tagged on dockerhub with 'x.y.z-incubating'.

For example, [1] is a representative one of our runtime projects showing
both kinds of tags.

We're tried to guide users to understanding this by making a strong
distinction between developer builds and official Apache releases on our
downloads page [2].

I'd be happy to learn more about best practices related to usage of
dockerhub.

thanks,
