[09:41] <dob1> it's not clear to who verify snap packages, because for ubuntu deb ones there is the debian/ubuntu teams, but for snap ones?  everyone can submit a snap package to snap store?
[09:41] <dob1> *clear to me
[09:43] <dob1> it's a trusted souce like the deb packages ?
[09:43] <dob1> *source
[12:22] <ogra_> dob1, snaps are generally fully confined and can not access anythig on the host without using pre-defined snap interfaces ... on upload there are automatic checks which interfaces a snap defines...
[12:22] <dob1> ogra_, my question was different
[12:23] <ogra_> dob1, while non-dangerous interfaces are typically allowed (desktop apps being able to output on display etc), any of the dangerous interfaces trigger a manual review of the security team
[12:24] <dob1> ogra_, that is an ubuntu teams ?
[12:24] <ogra_> so there *is* the same level (i'd say even a higher one) of review a deb gets (for a deb reviews only happen on first upload, later revisions are based on the trust towards the uploader) 
[12:25] <ogra_> for snaps each single upload is auto-checked ... if a snap changes its security policies, that upload will trigger a new review 
[12:26] <ogra_> it is the reviewers team on the forum (see topic) ... and all reviews are publically discussed before an exception is granted ... (see the "store-request" category on the forum)
[12:37] <dob1> ogra_, thanks for the info
