My gripes:

* half git-syntax/half package manager-syntax is cumbersome to me.

* Inability to compile Docker from source without using the Docker Project's provided "black box" binary Docker.

* No formal explanation of how to create your own base image from scratch (ie. not using a Docker Project provided base image).

* Defaults to storing images in the Docker "cloud" repo. (would have preferred a git-like setup where pushing my images to a repo of my choice was more "normal")

* GO Lang is still pretty obscure for most developers, and an interesting choice given the language's youth and likely-hood to change rapidly as it matures.

* Docker is built on-top of existing Linux technologies, mainly LXC, making it more-or-less disposable in the future (as someone else figures out how to abstract/manage LXC better)

* Docker is mainly built by Dotcloud - a for-profit company. Dotcloud has been very generous in their effort... but, being for-profit, what is their take out of it? (It can't be "just for the goodness of Linux").
