(For anyone who's not the submitter, when this was mentioned about a week ago, @shykes was hinting that there would be some sort of community images repository made before launch.)
http://docker.io/documentation/commandline/cli.html
We welcome all pull requests and issues, so if you notice something missing in the docs, feel free to let us know, or add :)
$ docker pull base
$ CONTAINER=$(docker run -d base apt-get install -y curl)
$ docker commit -m "Installed curl" $CONTAINER yebyen/betterbase
$ docker push yebyen/betterbase
You're right, the docs are indeed poor.
For example, this is the image I use to automatically update docker's binary downloads:
$ docker pull shykes/dockerbuilder # Be patient, it's a big one
$ docker history shykes/dockerbuilder
$ docker run -i -t shykes/dockerbuilder /usr/local/bin/dockerbuilder $REVISION $S3_ID $S3_KEYI did not get all of this from your first reply, I guess I should have been wondering, where the images are hosted, what's stopping other people from publishing images as yebyen, etc...
The docker registry is a community server where anyone can add their own images, they just need to login first (docker login), and then push/pull their images they want to share.
nothing is stopping you, so go ahead and try it today.

<p>The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there is an error in the application.</p>
The account creation does not echo Username or Email, which is unusual for an account creation, and I think that Password should echo at least the \n even if the password is entered blind as customary.
