Register snap name "erigon" to dwellir-snapcrafters

Would it be possible to register the snap name erigon to Dwellir AB (dwellir-snapcrafters) as we can’t seem to find any such snap in the snap-store.

Dwellir AB is a verified publisher and intend to start publishing the erigon snap as soon as possible and would ideally do this under the erigon name.

sudo snap search erigon
No matching snaps for "erigon"
sudo snap info erigon
error: no snap found for "erigon"

We have been trying to locate the current owner of the name, but haven’t been able to do so.

If this name is already active and no ownership transfer is possible, we would be helped to know this.

The process to solve this is as follows:

Go here and enter erigon as the name. You will get the form shown below, in which you can enter a “dispute” where the store team will investigate and resolve this.

@popey - any news from within?

I am not within, I am without.

Patience, padawan.

(I’d wait till the US Canonical people have woken up, recovered from Ubuntu release week, and had their morning coffee) :smiley:

@alexmurray No progress on this yet?

Hi,

Apologize this took some long.

Will try to reach out to the current owner, as snap names are granted on a first-come, first-served basis, and work out a solution.

Will let you know as soon I get a reply from them.

Regards

@verterok I appreciate your effort, but what can we expect in terms of “waiting time” since we would be left in limbo around this question.

We are in the process of refining the snap as it is and we are kind of keen to be able to integrate it into our release pipeline, which ends up in a limbo as well.

I understand if you can’t give us a definite answer, but nevertheless something we would be really helped from.

Hello,

The name is registered by the upstream manifoldfinance.com, they are checking with the erigon team how to proceed. Will let you know as soon as I hear back from them, but I also pointed them to this thread in case they wan to reach out to you.

Regards

@verterok I just got back from Manifold finance via email and they were OK with the transfer.

I hope they will reach out to you also here (or how you contacted them).

We’re super excited to be able to release it as soon as the transfer is complete.

Hello, whom should I speak with to release this?

Thought I had spoken to Canonical, evidently not! Apologies for this inconvenience.

@verterok has responded to me here. Perhaps he can help?

@popey @verterok - any news in this matter since I’ve already confirmed with @sambacha who is the owner of the name.

Its been a while since I heard about it and we’re keen to let it out there.

Hi, Yes, I can help :slight_smile:

I contacted @sbacha but never got a response back, I was waiting on the confirmation to proceed I’ll reach out again (via email as I need to contact the developer via the internal name review forms in for the proper “papertrail”)

Regards,

Hi,

Sill no answer from the snap owner (sbacha), will contact her again.

Cheers,

I’ve sent @sambacha a reminder also.

Hi @sambacha if you can add @lonroth as a collaborator to confirm the intent of transferring that would be enough for us to proceed.

Cheers

@verterok - would it be the same thing if @sambacha adds the “info@dwellir.com” as a collaborator since that is the verified publisher I’m representing which is also the entity that has requested the name at this point?
