I take it as a temporary measure that will be undone when it's past being experimental.
- ses1984 7y agoIf I were to propose to my team that we install a temporary measure in the form of an additional service that needs availability they would smack me down, because that's a pretty stupid temporary measure.
- AnthonBerg 7y agoSoftware is generally published online. Docker image repositories are generally online. The very act of building a Docker image pulling in dependencies is generally done online. It was a deep hack into the entirety of the Docker build chain. This way it was probably possible to publish experimental work-in-progress build features to the world at a faster pace than the official Docker release cycle. And as pointed out above, the online-only requirement has been lifted already. The situation is perfectly understandable, and to be commended that people offered to do this work for the betterment of all.
