I think you're confusing two things: Docker Hub as a web site (which requires nonfree software to use during *setup*) and Docker Hub as an image repository (which requires nothing but Docker itself, it's like a package repository with automated builds per package). They may talk to the same backend databases, but they are not the same thing. Building an alternative to Docker Hub is an interesting proposition, but not a blocker to this work. Until there's an alternative, I'm keeping the Docker Hub account active and will set up builds there. When there's an alternative, I'm happy to migrate it or duplicate it. Ted
