These version numbers are a little confusing because 11.3 now has newer ZFS features than the latest release from the 12.x branch and upgrading from 11.3 to 12.0 might cause issues as noted in the 11.3 Errata page.
Debian 10 was released this past weekend, but Debian 8 is still supported until June 2020, and Debian 9 beyond that. See also multiple Postgresql versions being support in parallel.
Just because a dot-release of one major version was released, doesn't effect the other major versions also active.
I followed the link expecting to find a huge page full of confusing lists of confusing things, but instead found a very small, concise page of very concise release notes containing links to information about the handful of security/etc. fixes in the release. Not sure what you're even looking at, the link you posted is a super normal minor release errata page. It is errata after all.
There was a native Docker port for FreeBSD, but it's very old and very unmaintained.
In theory, someone could create a Docker compatible engine using zfs, jails and virtual network adapters. FreeBSD can run Linux/ELF binaries (which is what the old Docker port did).
I've always felt like Docker for Mac/Windows was always a hack. Even the newer versions don't run natively, they just use the standard Win/Mac hypervisor API. On Win/Mac, you still have to VPN into your container network. On Linux, you can communication with containers directly via IP.
Docker for Mac still uses an intermediate VM, it's just mostly transparent to the user and doesn't require you to manually muck around with docker-machine.
You can even connect to the console of the VM if you run into issues.

I don't know why freebsd lists things like this. It's confusing.
containerd is intended to be multiplatform from the start, so hopefully the FreeBSD support will come.

Am I mistaken? Am I mixing this up with something?
