A big thank you to all the people who reached out offering to help us get in touch with somebody at Docker to get this resolved. With your assistance we've been able to speak with their Developer Relations team and fix our issues with the DSOS application process. With the best will in the...
If you're the kind of smart arse who already knows how our Docker mods work under the hood, you can skip the next section, but if not then I'm afraid it's necessary reading to properly understand what follows it.
