-    Retrieving images covers the current “tag listing” (e.g. “what named manifests are in `library/busybox`?”), because tags are entries in the image format's [`manifests` array][manifests].

-        Creating and deleting repositories are per-repository actions, which are out of scope for this entry.

+    * Description: Define a protocol for creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting objects defined in the [image specification][image-spec].
+        Listing repositories (like [`/v2/_catalog`][catalog]) is a multi-[image-index][] action, which is out of scope for this entry.

+        Listing image indexes within a group is a multi-[image-index][] action, which is out of scope for this entry.
     * Why: This specification will provide one (of possibly many) distribution specifications.
         Alternative distribution specifications may be developed for uses cases not covered by this specification, but defining them is currently out of scope for the OCI.
 
-* “Retrieving images by their content-addressable hash”.
-    Docker's registery API already provides endpoints for fetching manifest objects by digest][get-manifest].
-    Docker's registery API does not currently provide endpoints for fetching image objects by digest, but this is the project where that will happen.

+    * Description: Specify a protocol for retrieving an [image index][image-index], manifest, or other [image specification][image-spec] object from a distribution engine by its content-addressable hash.
     * Why: Using a hash as a name is a way to ensure a unique image name without relying on a particular naming authority or system.
         Using hashing for name is an acceptable addition as it does not encode any centralized namespace.
