What is the scope of what docker questions are on topic here?

This question briefly touches on this subject: Are questions on Docker suitable for ServerFault?

But none of the answers really address the general question comprehensively about what types of docker questions are on topic and two sound conflicting.

I have a fair bit of work with Docker right now. I am never sure if SF is the right place (and know you, ah, protect your site scope with a fervor) - it might be nice to have a more comprehensive listing for what types of Docker questions are on topic.

Topics like:

  • Creation of docker containers
  • Networking of docker containers
  • Orchestration of docker container networks
  • Dockerfiles/docker-compose
  • Docker command line parameters

They all seem to me like they would fit the scope here but it would be nice to have a feeling for what types of topics fit the scope, with respect to Docker.

My question which is prompting this is basically how to most effectively mount libfaketime into a precreated Docker container and manipulate the time in the container.
