cc @rdblue I think the initial version is almost done, which you can take a look at this PR and have a try by following the [README.md](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/0a92afae5263ccbd608de0efdc646ab479fb9638/docker/README.md). **And I'd like to have a further discussion about a few details in the docker demo to make sure we're on the same page, so that I can continue the work.** **(1) Should we use Hive Table or Hadoop Table in the docker demo?** Currently I'm using the Hadoop Table and Spark to demonstrate the writing process. It'd be fine if you think a Hive Table would be better because of its popularity. I guess it'd be easy to add one more hive container here. **(2) How often do we need to update the docker?** I think there may exist two choices: * Update the docker in every Iceberg's building process. In this way, users can always try the latest Iceberg built from the master branch, which may enable users and developers try new features as soon as possible. * Update the docker in every Iceberg's stable release. It's like what I'm doing now, downloading from the stable release from apache's repository. The docker will be updated only when Iceberg releases a new version. Personally I'm in favor of the second option, which can already satisfy a new user's needs from my perspective. **(3) Features included in the docker demo** The current user guide in [README.md](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/0a92afae5263ccbd608de0efdc646ab479fb9638/docker/README.md) is a temporary version for committers to review the codes, and I'm going to find a more popular scenario and more data for Iceberg's starters (I appreciate any help about this). I'm still a newbie to Iceberg, so maybe I'm not very clear about the most important feature of Iceberg. Table Evolution and Time Travel are the best in my mind. Anyway, could you tell me the features that you'd like to demonstrate to the starters of Iceberg? **(4) Will the docker demo demonstrated on the website?** If so, I may need to update the docs in the website project. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
