Intent to package: Snaps are universal Linux packages

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:

# snap install --channel=edge --devmode _snap_name_

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.
