Hi Tim,

Good timing, we're exploring exactly this. :) There are a few options under
consideration, but all involve letting you treat organisation members as
collaborators on a snap.

Of course we'll announce it here. If you start with a developer account to
hold your organisation identity, you'll be able to transfer over when the
time comes.

Hi Adam,

Your best bet today is the Stats page on
https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/, but we're working to provide a much
richer set of metrics going forward. For example, you'll be able to see
unique active installs broken down by channel, architecture, and revision.

Yup! We have plans to create a badge that will take you to the snap builds
page, which includes instructions on how to snap install the tip of git
master.

We'll announce that here when it's ready.

This will guide you through it:

If you run into any problems, please do let me know.

Yes, you absolutely will be able to monetise a snap, and we're working hard
to make this a breeze for both the buyer and the seller. Complete
instructions will be announced to this mailing list when we're ready to
launch. Stay tuned :)

Re: Spotify-Web-Player-for-Linux as a snap

[Evan Dandrea]

Hi Matthew,

You've set your snap to use the 'platform' interface, but no such interface
exists. If you remove that line and 'unity8', then re-upload, it should
pass review.

Do you recall what you read that referenced a 'platform' interface? If
there's some outdated documentation out there, I'd like to get it fixed.

Let us know if you need any more help, and thanks for snapping Spotify!

Publishing to the snap store from Travis

[Evan Dandrea]

New versions of snapcraft can push a snap right into a channel. With a
small wrapper, you can teach Travis to build snaps out of your git commits
and release them into edge [1, 2]:
https://gist.github.com/evandandrea/c754964bfdfb176844f26f605ebbb8db

Your users can then drink from the firehose with:
$ snap refresh --channel=edge your-snap-name

And jump back when they can no longer take the heat:
$ snap refresh --channel=stable your-snap-name

Let me know if you find this useful or have any follow up questions.

Thanks,
Evan

1: This uses a macaroon you provide (`snapcraft login`), but encrypts the
cached copy such that pull requests cannot steal it.
2: In this example I used an "edge" git branch, but you can easily modify
.travis.sh to send commits on master, or any branch, to the edge channel.
