Q: What does “rootless” mean? Q: What does the name “Podman” mean? Q: What is a POD? Q: What is the difference between Buildah and Podman? Q: Can I use Podman to run Kubernetes? Q: Can Podman run containers on Windows? Q: My rootless container doesn’t have an IP address; is this a bug? Q: Does Podman require containerd or CRI-O? Q: Where’s the documentation for Podman? Q: Does Podman work with Docker? Q: Can Docker and Podman be installed at the same time on a system. But we would love to hear from you on what questions you would like to have answered.  Including the Answer would also be appreciated. Please fire away.

Thanks for the foreword. Very interesting. I also think that an author-produced FAQ and a "sampled from real-world" FAQ can be quite different.
