Makes sense, will add.

**Docker 24 incoming**

On a closing note, moving from custom torcx docker / containerd ebuilds to upstream Gentoo ones significantly eases the maintenance burden and makes integration of major version updates significantly easier.
So the new Alpha versions also ship docker 24, which is a major version bump from version 20 currently in Beta and Stable, as well as the latest containerd.

if we're shipping the docker sysext, should we also ship podman? there's some demand for it.

Also, WASM. We're already tracking this, will add a section on that and some references.

Thank you Andy!

It... does? That wasn't my intention (at all!) when snapping the image earlier today. Will come up with something better.

@ahrkrak All comments addressed, splash image replaced. Some of my home improvement tools enjoyed the experience and are now considering an alternative career on the catwalk 😸

It covers all the parts we need and I think we can link to the blog post in the next release notes as a heads-up until it hits the Stable channel.
