The Fedora Atomic Working Group needs your help to decide how Docker will be included in Fedora Atomic Host in the future. If you’re already familiar with this issue, you can skip straight to the survey. Otherwise, read on for some background.

Getting Started with Buildah
I’ve been working with Linux containers at Red Hat since OpenShift used cartridges. With the help of some colleagues in Redwood City, I built a Red Hat MRG Messaging (Qpid) broker cartridge. When OpenShift moved to Docker, in 2013, I contributed all the original Docker man pages. I also got to contribute some of the original content to the Project Atomic web site (this site).
I’m very excited to see the Project Atomic efforts in the area of the Open Container Initiative (OCI) and specifically Buildah. After trying out the great work that the team have contributed, I discovered I had the start of a pretty useful introductory tutorial, and decided to see if I could contribute that content upstream. That pull request was merged recently. So let’s get started.
