Hi, all that's great to hear. The docker is getting more and more popular
:-)
Recently, I have "dockerized" XWiki v8.4 hosted in Tomcat and backed by
OracleXE for my testing purposes. I will definitely try your version, it
seems more komplex and more configurable than mine :-)

Hi Vincent,
This is great, and if it had been out two weeks ago I would have used it
as the
basis for my installation! ;D
I can’t promise to check it out in the near-term future but when I get a
chance to
revisit the install method, I will check it out.
Cool
When you release a new version, do you plan on
pushing that out as a new
Docker image, or will you upgrade-in-place in the
container? I assume the
former.
Yep, I’ll push new images.
Thanks

Thanks,
Craig
