Doubt about alpine tag #51

Closed jaswdr closed 8 years ago

jaswdr commented 8 years ago

Have you any plan to bring this image to Alpine for example ?

tianon commented 8 years ago

@jaschweder not especially -- IMO the goals of this base image and using Alpine as a base are fundamentally misaligned

Normally, one uses Alpine specifically to get smaller images. This base image's main purpose is to include the entire kitchen sink irrespective of size. :sweat_smile:

@tianon I see, if there are any restriction, maybe I send some PR and see if everyone accept :) for now I can close this issue.
