It’d be a great strategy for Docker, considering what looks like an industry convergence on K8S as an orchestration platform.

Double down on the Dockerfile format and abstract things that would otherwise be frozen in time, taking ownership of some aspects of DockerHub that are currently managed by contributors. They do this already with official language images but there has to be more to it outside of that than expecting people to figure out the intimate details of each base image while keeping them up to date across OS versions and library versions.

I think they are doing something along those lines with linuxkit: https://github.com/linuxkit/linuxkit.
