Published images?

[jackfirth]

I've registered the "racket" organization on Docker Hub, so we could add a "racket/racket" repository of images for various Racket versions and variants.

Awesome. What do I need to do?

[jackfirth]

First make a Docker ID at hub.docker.com and I'll add you to the Racket organization.

Then, we'd have to decide what images to publish and with what tags. Good reference points would be the Docker Hub image repositories for other "language runtime" images:

• python
• ruby
• node
• golang
• erlang
• clojure
• haskell

I've previously experimented with "onbuild" images for Racket and found that they're just not worth the trouble. The Docker Hub folks even deprecated them in the official images.

I'm samth at Docker Hub.

I've added you to the racket org as a member of the "owners" team.

I think a good target would be to have Racket images based on the (Debian-flavored) "buildpack-deps" image. I'd prefer a unix-style install over in-place though, so #21 would need to be completed first. Also not sure which version of Debian would be best to use.
