 The current version of the program should be considered a beta release. The program works well, but there will most probably be bugs and possibly sub-optimal performance in some scenarios. On the other hand, this is the ideal time to have an influence on the direction of the development of Nomad Network. To do so, join the discussion, report bugs and request features here on the GitHub project.
 
 ### Feature roadmap
- - Access control and authentication for nodes, pages and files
  - Network-wide propagated bulletins and discussion threads
- - Collaborative maps
+ - Collaborative maps and geospatial information sharing
  - Facilitation of trade and barter

 **Please Note**: If this is the very first time you use pip to install a program on your system, you might need to reboot your system for the program to become available. If you get a "command not found" error or similar when running the program, reboot your system and try again.
 
-### Installing on Android
+### Install on Android
 You can install Nomad Network on Android using Termux, but there's a few more commands involved than the above one-liner. The process is documented in the [Android Installation](https://markqvist.github.io/Reticulum/manual/gettingstartedfast.html#reticulum-on-android) section of the Reticulum Manual. Once the Reticulum has been installed according to the linked documentation, Nomad Network can be installed as usual with pip.
 
 For a native Android application with a graphical user interface, have a look at [Sideband](https://unsigned.io/sideband).
 
+### Nomad Network Daemon with Docker
+
+Nomad Network is automatically published as a docker image on Github Packages. Image tags are one of either `master` (for the latest release) or the version number (eg `0.1.7`) for the specified version number (as tagged in this git repo).
+
+
+```sh
+$ docker pull ghcr.io/markqvist/nomadnet:master
+
+# Run nomadnet interactively without installing it (with default config)
+$ docker run -it ghcr.io/markqvist/nomadnet:master
+
+# Run nomadnet as a daemon, using config stored on the host machine in specific
+# directories, and allowing access to specific numbered ports openned by nomadnet
+# on the host machine on the same port numbers.
+$ docker run -d \
+  -v /local/path/nomadnetconfig/:/root/.nomadnetwork/ \
+  -v /local/path/reticulumconfig/:/root/.reticulum/ \

+If you encounter peers or nodes on the network, that you would rather not see in your client, you can add them to the `!~/.nomadnetwork/ignored`! file. To ignore nodes or peers, add one 20-character hexadecimal destination hash per line to the file. To unignore one again, simply remove the corresponding entry from the file and restart Nomad Network.
