I am new to Docker.
What are the major differences between Docker and traditional VM?
Is Docker stable enough for daily use?

There are a few serious problems with this question - among them you don't define what a "traditional VM" is (VMware? VirtualBox? BSD Jails?), or what your criteria for "stability" are (though I suppose we can infer "doesn't crash" as a basic metric?) -- I think [the question Michael Hampton pointed you at](http://serverfault.com/q/294761/126632) might answer what you're looking for though. If so let me know and I'll mark this as a duplicate. If not, please make this question more specific and it may get reopened. Thanks! – voretaq7 May 03 '13 at 04:02

The following appears on Docker's Getting Started page:
Docker is still under heavy development. It should not yet be used in production. Check the repo for recent progress.
That speaks volumes.
Its only being available for Ubuntu is also a serious problem...
