migrate our images outside docker hub
We got an email saying that April 14th our thetorproject organization will be close. There is a FAQ hidden in their website with some information about it.
If we don't do anything our images will deleted April 14th, making our 900k+ unable to update them or to install them. But docker promises that your organization’s namespace will not be released, so other users can’t “squat” your images.
We can ask to be included in the Docker-Sponsored Open Source Program, in that case they will defer any organization suspension or deletion while DSOS application is under review, and give organizations at least 30 days before we suspend the organization if the application is ultimately rejected. We should qualify for it, but there are many stories in internet of people being rejected from it.
We can move to another registry, there are few options:
- TPA plans to add a registry (tpo/tpa/gitlab#89 (closed))
- quay.io
- github
- An individual docker hub account, will require changing the name
