+1 to the proposal

A remainder: You probably don't want to use them, but we have some
scripts we use to build docker images for CI in
https://github.com/postgis/postgis-build-env

It would be a shame to lose contributors, so I see transitioning from mdillon's repos to postgis's repos as a lower barrier compared to all that's involved with getting into docker-library project.

I've seen a lot of work being done in this vein, and I'd like to work on gathering and incorporating all the contributions that people have been making and try to centralize some evaluation and discussion of the approaches.  This will work best after transitioning from mdillon's repos to repos in the postgis organization.

My instinct is that the two goals I stated above need to happen ASAP to avoid losing the community that already exists.  While docker-library has an even larger community which is just another reason why it should be a goal to aim for, it's a bigger hurdle which will take more time.
