Show HN: Tool and API to sync Docker images across multiple registries

For the last 6 month "lstags" evolved from a small utility to a full Golang API library, it survived complete re-shape and re-fit, and I hope at least some of you will find it useful!

HOW/WHY COULD ANYONE USE IT???

Well, for example, lstags could be used for filling local registries (or to "prewarm" caching registries) with images from quay.io and gcr.io, to speed up K8s cluster launches.

Also could be used to "prewarm" local Docker storage by pulling popular images in advance (so your "docker run" will not be wasting time on pulling things, it will just run!).

P.S.:

There is a terrible lack of V2 registry tools, so I decided to write my own (a mix of NIH and real necessity, yes!!!).

Any ideas are welcome (I am very open), if you know any useful Docker registry tools, please mention em here.

I am seeking for collaborations now, to not become yet another lonely Golang madman reinventing the wheel. ;)
