Sounds like a yes.

#15I love the fact that you keep trying to define your own vocubulary 'Deck' etc, but always have to explain it. Best to stick with the more eaily understood term, rather than invent your own, I think.
Unless you're going to try and trademark them all.

Well, no. A Dockerfile is the build instructions, not the build artifact.

Thanks - we discussed that a lot - we were trying to make a simple 3 steps process. If we get a lot of feedback that it's confusing we'll ditch it.

It's per instance - so you can have unlimited docker files; you only pay when you create an instance from one.

I think you need to define your own language if it's better. 'Deck' is clearly better than 'Dockerfile'.
