Description

I definitely think that this is a good candidate to spread the standard.

I truly believe that packer+ansible (or whatever configuration management) is the future of the dockerfile.

https://packer.io/docs/builders/docker.html

If I have time, I'll see what I can do, but I think it is not a gigantic project :) I'd love to help on that, but my finance are telling me I should do more freelance :)
