IMPORTANT: as suggested in another comment, please signup for the beta before responding.
Thank you all for investing your time in this thread, it is incredibly rewarding for the team to see their work appreciated and used by our fellow hackers. Constructive criticism with suggestions for improvement are the absolute best, thank you for those in particular.
WestCoastJustin, a lot of your comments got marked as dupes, because they are identical to each other.
I've gone through and vouched them for you, so now they will show up, but new ones will have the same problem. Perhaps you can modify each reply slightly to avoid tripping the detector?
shykes, it might be useful to add a note that people need to sign up to the beta first!
Ah, thanks very much! FYI for anyone reading this. You'll need to have signed up at https://beta.docker.com/ first, then post your Docker Hub ID (username), or send email to feedback+hn@docker.com. We cannot send beta tokens if you have not signed up to the beta first.
Hello -- I lead a team developing a very complex enterprise application. We have already spent a lot of time with Docker to simplify our CI system. I'd love to join the Docker for OSX beta to figure out how we can all start using it for development. This will enable us to delete tons of ugly code.
Can't wait to see power of new Hypervisor. I student, played with Docker for a year, and this seems like a really big deal for me, so I can neatly organize my whole development environment and learn basics of containerization and deployment along the way!
Really excited to see things built on top of Hypervisor.framework. I work with genomics researchers and I'm always encouraging Docker images for reproducible analyses. Starting workflows on OS X that can scale beyond laptops is really interesting! Thanks!
I signed up first day (I actually signed again today hope that doesn't matter) but still haven't hear anything yet.
We are using docker mostly for developing and integration testing in Redhat. But it would be handy to try out better Mac experience.
My personal docker ID is zkjiang, thanks.
Signed up on March 25th and continue to check my inbox every day. So keen to get my org. using Docker but the dev experience has been a blocker to date so very eager to get them on board!
Hello, I'm working on a project for a client with a very restrictive vpn that makes extensive use of docker. I would love to get my hands on the docker beta to try out the vpn compatibility. - thanks!

Thanks for the offer, shykes! I'm currently using Docker to emulate and test a server setup (multiple web servers talking to multiple databases) locally and I plan on using it to check cross-compiled linux binaries (using Rust and MUSL).
My company has an increasingly complex SOA setup that right now is developed in an ad-hoc basis, but with containers we expect to really streamline our dev setup and dev/production parity. We're all on Macs so this is would be pretty cool to get access to.
I'd love to try it out. I've been struggling with Docker ever since I moved from Linux to Mac. Especially with setting up dev environments for our projects. VirtualBox shared folders just don't cut it.
Would love to try this out on my mac. Eagerly waiting for the confirmation mail since I registered. Use case is to transform my development environment and get rid of all those local installs.
I'd love to get included in the beta. We're in the process of splitting up a monolith into separate applications. Docker for Mac/Windows would ease this transition immensely!
Amazing! My dockerhub id is `brodsky`. We are a well-established web product running docker (almost) across the board, and currently exploring CI/CD use cases. Would love some beta love!
Hey! could you shoot an invite? We're fighting with Vagrant for our development environments and considering moving slowly into Dockerizing all the things to unify them with production deployment :)

I hope I'm not too late, I'd like to contribute to the development tools.
Is Docker for Mac going to be open source? why a private beta ?
Thanks!
Id love to be fast tracked - most of the people at my current employer use macs for day to day work, so having a slick native use case would be a godsend!
My ID is the same as my name here, karunamon. Thanks!
Would be awesome to be able to try it out. Right now VMWare Fusion with a full linux and Docker inside. Had problems with the filesystem integration when using docker machine.
I'd like to get bumped to the top. Currently researching docker for my company and having it work natively on mac would be awesome. My docker id is suneilp
Generally anyone who cares enough to ask directly, we'll automatically add to the top of the list.
EDIT: or, feel free to contact us privately with a few details on your configuration and use case: feedback+hn@docker.com
