!Friendica Admins Any idea what the situation with the Docker image is? It seems like Phil isn't active and hasn't been for a while. Does anyone know if he's OK?

Hopefully he is, and is just taking a break. Does anyone else know how to generate a new docker image? At the moment, we're kinda stuck on 2023.12, which AIUI has known vulnerabilities.

Failing that, how easy is it to migrate an existing installation away from Docker?

@Sarah Brown I understand your concern. Maybe private matters has come priority, e.g. vacation or baby-time? I don't know, but I would bet on this.

I guess he is okay, but I guess that he currently is extremely busy, so that he can't do anything for the project. Sadly he is our only expert concerning Docker. It would be great if we found some volunteer to have a look at the whole stuff.

@Michael Vogel My partner, @Zoe O'Connell has expressed tentative interest as this sort of thing is her day job, but she's stupidly busy with her Open University work at the moment.

@Michael Vogel @Zoe O'Connell Heh, the basic mechanics of building a docker image given a base system and a set of stuff to install, I can do. I'm an utter beginner with stuff like GIt and suchlike though. Last time I was gainfully employed in software engineering, we were all about CVS.
