  It sure looks like there was a plan to completely eliminate Docker and replace it with CRI-O and it looks like Docker Inc. responded to that plan by creating containerd so they could maintain some level of relevance. So yes, Docker can stay involved as long as they deliver what k8s wants, but k8s is clearly in the driver's seat now.
