[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [General] Announcing ROS Docker Images for ARM and Debian

[ruffsl]

### Update:

Alright, looks like the fix for the Ubuntu Trusty cloud image for arm32v7 has made its way through the Docker Library pipeline, so now all ROS distros should have arm32v7 images [1].

```
$ docker run -it arm32v7/ros:indigo-ros-core uname -a

Additionally, as an updated reference for the Docker Multi-arch article from IBM that I linked to in the origin post, here is a more recent talk on the subject by Phil Estes (IBM Cloud) and Michael Friis (Docker, Inc) from DockerCon EU 2017 [2]:

### Docker Multi-arch All the Things

> In this talk, Phil and Michael will talk about how Docker was extended from x86 Linux to Windows, ARM and IBMs z Systems mainframe and Power platforms. They will cover the work and architecture that makes it possible to run Docker on different CPU architectures and operating systems; How porting Docker to a new OS is different from porting it to new hardware; What it means for a Docker image to be multi-arch (and how are multi-arch images built and maintained); How does Docker correctly deploy and schedule apps on heterogeneous swarms. Phil and Michael will also demo some of the new features that let Docker Enterprise Edition manage swarms with both x86 Linux and Windows nodes as well as mainframes.
