Avoid experimental features in production

Details

Avoid experimental features in production.

Rationale:

Experimental is now a runtime docker daemon flag instead of a separate build. Passing –experimental as a runtime flag to the docker daemon, activates experimental features. Experimental is now considered a stable release, but with a couple of features which might not have tested and guaranteed API stability.

Solution

Do not pass –experimental as a runtime parameter to the docker daemon.

Impact:

None

Default Value:

By default, experimental features are not activated on the docker daemon.
