There are already ongoing efforts that are trying to get rid of that dependency too:

- https://github.com/kelseyhightower/cri-o-tutorial

- Mesos already has something called UCR that allows one to run docker images minus the dependency on the docker runtime. (http://mesos.apache.org/documentation/latest/mesos-container...)

Disclaimer: I work at Mesosphere on Mesos.

Thanks for the link, that's a pretty neat project.

I'm not a huge fan of Docker's runtime because it tends to be rather sluggish. I haven't used it in quite a while, though.
