> I, for one, would like to hear more of Docker's benefits clearly explained (i.e. less shipping container metaphors, and more talk of IP configuration). I'd also like to hear more about the limitations of Docker (e.g. what kernel versions can I move containers between, on which kernel versions is it secure etc).

Have you browsed the website at all? If you look through the Docker blog (http://blog.docker.io), the docs (http://docs.docker.io) and the user mailing list (https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/docker-us...) you will find plenty of resources.

For example here are a few videos of actual people explaining how they use docker and why they like it (Ebay, Cloudflare and Mailgun/Rackspace). http://blog.docker.io/2013/08/docker-hack-day-6-lightning-ta...

There's also an online tutorial which lets you dive directly into a command-line simulator.

If you want to dig a little deeper you can also browse the dev mailing list (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/docker-dev) and our IRC channel: #docker on freenode.

I'm pretty sure none of these resources mention the shipping container more than once.

I'm sorry you took offense; it was intended as friendly feedback. I'm familiar with Docker. If you have actual answers, it would be much more constructive to post relevant links.
