# "latest" intentionally missing, since "docker-dev:latest" implies (IMO) the "latest development image", which these builds never will be
# if that is what you are after, see "dockercore/docker" (https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/dockercore/docker/)

This is just to further solidify the idea that "docker-dev" is not for the latest and greatest builds of github.com/docker/docker.

This is just to further solidify the idea that "docker-dev" is _not_ for the latest and greatest builds of `github.com/docker/docker`.

This was also partially a result of the discussion in docker-library/docker#2. 👍

It's also worth dropping a pointer to docker-library/docs#195 here, just to tie all the strings together.

But won't that break people that try to docker pull docker-dev when 1.7 comes out and then they get 1.6?

I actually plan to delete the latest tag from the hub pending this merge so that it doesn't exist at all.

That sounds a little dangerous, but I have no alternative.

Heh, the alternative would be not to build it at all. This image exists due to popular demand, but "latest" is really, really misleading, and not at all helpful to anyone.

Well... OK. But there will be issues of "I can't docker pull docker-dev".
