Subject: Re: [DNG] Docker leaves Ubuntu for AlpineLinux (and hires its dev)
I know Alpine Linux has been mentioned before on this list so I took
some time and have investigated it a bit more. While I still prefer the
Debian way that I've grown to know over the past 16 1/2 years, I do like
certain aspects of Alpine. Even the largest ISO installed a very lean
base system into a Virtual Box VM. OpenRC makes a very nice
presentation on system start and the system seems lightning fast. There
is even a Pi version I may need to try.

If nothing else, the alternatives are proving to be an interesting
change from the mainstream.
