I'm hoping to reach a decision on how we handle docker rpms (vanilla +/- rh patches)
There's the default docker that CentOS gets in extras from RHEL which comes with RH patches (of course). But this kinda comes quite a bit after upstream docker releases.
Next up is 'docker' in virt SIG which usually tracks upstream releases. Would people prefer this build be vanilla upstream or with RH patches included.
Then there is 'docker-master' in virt SIG which is a daily rebuild of docker upstream master branch + redhat patches.
We could either:
a) ship 'docker' in virt SIG with RH patches and also provide a 'docker-upstream' which is a vanilla upstream package
b) ship 'docker' in virt SIG without any RH patches and provide a 'docker-redhat' with RH patches
What do the RH patches actually do?
I think either one could make sense depending on how much value the patches provide / how much they cost to port to the latest release.
