Tim Ruffles 455e837e20 [DOCS] replace foo/bar with concrete names

namespaces are not well documented, and I had to jump around to other docs. replacing `foo/bar` hopefully makes what's going on here a bit more obvious.

Docker Registry API

Introduction

This is the REST API for the Docker Registry
It stores the images and the graph for a set of repositories
It does not have user accounts data
It has no notion of user accounts or authorization
It delegates authentication and authorization to the Index Auth service using tokens
It supports different storage backends (S3, cloud files, local FS)
It doesn't have a local database
It will be open-sourced at some point

We expect that there will be multiple registries out there. To help to grasp the context, here are some examples of registries:

sponsor registry: such a registry is provided by a third-party hosting infrastructure as a convenience for their customers and the docker community as a whole. Its costs are supported by the third party, but the management and operation of the registry are supported by dotCloud. It features read/write access, and delegates authentication and authorization to the Index.
mirror registry: such a registry is provided by a third-party hosting infrastructure but is targeted at their customers only. Some mechanism (unspecified to date) ensures that public images are pulled from a sponsor registry to the mirror registry, to make sure that the customers of the third-party provider can “docker pull” those images locally.
vendor registry: such a registry is provided by a software vendor, who wants to distribute docker images. It would be operated and managed by the vendor. Only users authorized by the vendor would be able to get write access. Some images would be public (accessible for anyone), others private (accessible only for authorized users). Authentication and authorization would be delegated to the Index. The goal of vendor registries is to let someone do “docker pull basho/riak1.3” and automatically push from the vendor registry (instead of a sponsor registry); i.e. get all the convenience of a sponsor registry, while retaining control on the asset distribution.
private registry: such a registry is located behind a firewall, or protected by an additional security layer (HTTP authorization, SSL client-side certificates, IP address authorization...). The registry is operated by a private entity, outside of dotCloud's control. It can optionally delegate additional authorization to the Index, but it is not mandatory.

Note

: Mirror registries and private registries which do not use the Index don't even need to run the registry code. They can be implemented by any kind of transport implementing HTTP GET and PUT. Read-only registries can be powered by a simple static HTTP server.

Note

: The latter implies that while HTTP is the protocol of choice for a registry, multiple schemes are possible (and in some cases, trivial):

HTTP with GET (and PUT for read-write registries);

local mount point;

remote docker addressed through SSH.

The latter would only require two new commands in docker, e.g., registryget and registryput, wrapping access to the local filesystem (and optionally doing consistency checks). Authentication and authorization are then delegated to SSH (e.g., with public keys).

The default namespace for a private repository is library.
