Hallo,
One small question strictly not related to podman: are there any means
to bundle container-related documentation to container itself, similar
to perl's embedded POD) and to query it in some generic way?
(say like 'podman docs <container name>')?
Best regards,

Hey,
Currently none that I'm aware of, but, man, that's a really cool idea!
There are a few places where metadata of various kinds could be used to
point at external docs, but nothing I'm aware of that's suitable for
storing even a few screen-fulls.
It may be a long road, but getting support for this into the OCI spec.
would be ideal. That way all container tooling can benefit.

You're welcome to propose this yourself, and there are also folks here
that may be willing to shepherd the effort. Personally, I think it's a
brilliant idea.
