I do love 'Docker' though.



I do too, but I didn't choose it :) It was an internal codename picked by one of the early engineers on the project. In fact I firmly intended to change the name before launch - but we accidentally launched ahead of schedule and people loved it. The rest is history.

A good example of my ineptitude at identifying good names.


That is why asking is always a good idea. I've met entrepreneurs that have the mindset that everything has to be an idea of themselves. I think that ego is a big player on their mindset.

The great thing about open-source is that everything is created through collaborarion. The best of everyone is contributed to a project in benefit of the entire community.
