In an ideal world every project had its own registry. Those centralized registries/package managers that are baked into tools are one of the reasons why hijacking namespaces (and typos of them) is even possible and so bad. Externalizing hosting costs to other parties is very attractive but if you are truly open source you can tell everybody to build the packages themselves from source and provide a script (or in this case a large Dockerfile) for that. No hosting of binary images necessary for small projects. Especially since a lot of open source projects are not used by other OSS but by large organizations I don't see the need to burden others with the costs for these businesses. Spinning this into "Docker hates Open Source" is absolutely missing the point. Linux distributions figured out decades ago that universities are willing to help out with decentralized distribution of their binaries. Why shouldn't this work for other essential OSS as well?
