Are there Mac servers out there you want to run apps on? Or just consumer apps you want to run on your mac? Curious about the use case!

VMs are that abstraction today. I think we can do better going forward, but still a lot to do with what we currently have planned.
Having some sort of translation that's not a VM as a part of the distribution mechanism doesn't make much sense, and breaking the portability of Docker comes at a significant cost.
I struggle to see how to make that work cleanly.
Maybe they haven't but I feel like Apple has abandoned the Mac OS X Server so no apps at least for me in that case but I think consumer apps would be a pretty cool use case.

Roger; thanks!
This appears to be aimed at SOHO users and not racks and racks of servers in a data centre.
I saw this... https://www.docker.com/community/governance/ but couldn't find any more information...
The first DGAB meeting is on 10/28, where we will propose a different way of working based on all of the feedback.
Stay tuned. We'll have a lot on this in the upcoming weeks.
1. Native Mac OS X support (so Mac Apps can also be in containers) 2. Being able to mix container operating systems with other host operating systems.
If that ever happens then operating systems and their versions would pretty much no longer matter; you could run anything anywhere without compatibility issues. I feel like this is something that has to eventually happen no matter what I'm just always curious what form(s) it will take.
