This may not be a big deal for small-time projects. But does this mean e.g., the official Node images for older runtime versions could disappear? I recently needed to revive an app that specifically required node:8.9.4-wheezy, pushed 2 years ago. An image that specific and old will quite possibly hit 0 downloads per 6 months in short order, if it hasn't already.
That is a really good point. I wonder if official images will be treated differently.
(I work for Docker). Inactive official images will not be deleted. We are updating the FAQ shortly.
