Intent to package: Snaps are universal Linux packages

[brlin-tw]

Dear maintainer(s),

Snaps are universal Linux packages that can be installed and run on many GNU+Linux distributions with ease. I've been following the Snapcrafters instructions and have built a working snap on the Snap Store, you may try it by running the following commands after installing snapd:

# Install the snap #
sudo snap install mari0-ce

# Connect the snap to optional security confinement interfaces #
## For allowing the game to use joystick ##
sudo snap connect mari0-ce:joystick

# Launch the application #
mari0-ce

I'm also looking forward to working with you to make the packaging work upstream (if you're interested). You may want to check out the current packaging recipe, the documentation, registering a developer account on the Snap Store, and get in touch with us to transfer the work under your control.

Thanks for your time and attention.

Thanks for sharing your package and for making it more accessible to more platforms! If you would like to contribute to the project or implement some code or assets that'd help make packaging easier, you are always free to submit a Pull Request, which we'll evaluate and eventually merge. If there's anything you'd like help with in regards to Mari0 CE's code, feel free to respond to this issue and I'll get back to you.
_{As a small nitpick, CE is actually more of a counterpart to Mari0 SE than it is to Alesan's Entities, but it's still a valid counterpart :P}

I would like to ask if you are willing to take over the maintenance of the package? If so I can request an ownership transfer and after that, you can set-up automatic snap building and publishing using the snapcraft build service.

As of now I can give you the snap's collaborator access via the e-mail address associated with your Ubuntu One account, you can send it to me privately via [email protected].

Unfortunately, I haven't had much free time as of lately to maintain this project. Most of what I do is review Pull Requests from contributors. I could still take ownership, but the Snap wouldn't get updated often, I'm afraid.

[brlin-tw]

That's fine, in that case, I'll set-up a mirror elsewhere for automatic snap building and keep maintaining the snap. You can request snap ownership whenever you feel ready.

I do need a proper application metadata(title, description) though, it would be great if you can provide one.

[HugoBDesigner]

I've updated the READ ME file to be more polished, so here's what I believe to be a good description.
And by the way, thanks for the help and for maintaining the snap, I really do appreciate it!

Title: Mari0: CE
Description: The open-source, community-driven effort to improve upon the latest version of Mari0 SE.

I overlooked the fields that need updating, so here is it:

field	description	restriction
Title	title for the snap	40 chars. max.
Summary	one-line summary for the package	78 chars. max.
Description	long description of the package	no restriction

I just added your Yahoo address found from your blog to the snap collaborator list just so you can make the changes manually in the future.
