Stable docker image is out of date

[James Houston]

Description

Docker hub lists a stable tag for the docker cli as well as stable:dind for the docker engine, but when run, it is not a current release.

Questions I have:

• Are stable and stable-dind image tags that are maintained?
• What does stable mean?
• Should anyone be using stable or stable-dind?

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Pull latest stable image

docker pull docker:stable

2. Run docker version using that image

docker run docker:stable version

Describe the results you received:
Got 19.03.14 as the version

Client: Docker Engine - Community
 Version:           19.03.14
 API version:       1.40
 Go version:        go1.13.15
 Git commit:        5eb3275
 Built:             Tue Dec  1 19:14:24 2020
 OS/Arch:           linux/amd64
 Experimental:      false

Describe the results you expected:
Expected to see a 20.10 version ( or the latest 19.03 release 19.03.15 )

Also, please let me know if this is not the best place for this issue. Thanks!

Channel aliases were limited in: #179. The Docker Hub Page shows which are actively maintained under "Supported tags and respective Dockerfile links".

That was exactly what I was looking for, thank you @yosifkit! 🎉
