##Wiki for Chaperone-based Docker Images

The images in chaperone-docker provide a good starting point for creating well-managed, developer-friendly containers. All of them are based upon features provided by the Chaperone process manager, which provides a strong foundation for managing user credentials, start-up scripts, periodic jobs, or any other services needed within the container. Chaperone-managed containers are not "OS-based" containers, but designed to work well in the "one-or-two" process-per-container model where a container provides a single micro-service and may require tightly-coupled processes, or internal maintenance via cron-jobs, or need a more cohesive approach to dealing with permissions and user credentials.

This wiki is a random collection of useful information and best practices for those using these containers, and contributions are welcome.
