In the document, it listed a set of possible status, created|restarting|running|removing|paused|exited|dead, however, there is no explanation of each status.

I found an article explained some of the status: http://docker-saigon.github.io/post/Docker-Internals/ , but not all of them, especially the dead status. What is the difference between dead and exited?

I think we need some docs explain the lifecycle of a docker container and link the reference here.
