Add definitions for ambiguous tags in docs #197

Open eightnoneone opened 8 months ago

eightnoneone commented 8 months ago

The current list of variant tags for images use terms that are not defined well.

Though some are terms of art that many Java developers and operators are familiar with, others are generic and ambiguous. The docker-library/docs README.md has a section for variants that only addresses alpine.

As single point of reference, I am a non-developer ops engineer that has been deploying Java applications for 25 years. This is what I understand from the tags:

I would like to see more explicit definitions included in this repo's README and the docker-library/docs README.

Agreed that many of these labels are not obvious. We have this work planned internally. The updates will be in this repo's readme and the readme in docker-library

https://github.com/docker-library/docs/blob/master/amazoncorretto/README.md#image-variants is out of date with this repo's README. Incremental progress can be made on this card by updating the official docs with what you have so far.
