I agree with Colin - Docker Base Image is what we should use when talking about Docker images which are then used in Docker Layered Images as a base layer on top of which you can build. Please don't
Yeah, after thinking about it I agree with this. People will just have to get used to the idea that "image" means a lot of things, if they aren't already.
If you are in context of Docker you can safely use Base Image and Layered Image. If you talk in general, adding "Docker" will bring you to the right "namespace".
Just to throw a wrinkle in things, when we're talking in the wide world of Docker where it's not all Fedora (weird, right?) it's probably the "Fedora Base Image" -- or _maybe_ the "Fedora Docker Base Image".
Do we need a documentation of this somewhere on Fedora Wiki?
Yes!
