Verified Publisher status request for FreeCAD

FreeCAD · April 30, 2025, 5:13pm

I am requesting “Verified Publisher” status for the FreeCAD snap. My name is Chris Hennes, and I am a Project Administrator for The FreeCAD project association AISBL. For the purposes of Snap maintenance we are using snap@freecad.org as our email address. We haven’t partnered with you (so far ).

Circling back around on this, having just released FreeCAD 1.0.2 – anyone from @policy-reviewers available to comment?

@policy-reviewers could you please help them, I’m not associated in any way but only a happy user of the software.

+1 from me (#voteFor), this request appears to meet all the requirements of Verified Accounts. @store can you please verify the email address? Thanks

The email is the one attached to this account at the Snapcraft forum – I didn’t receive any further contact at that address regarding this request.

@policy-reviewers @store, is there anything blocking this particular verification to happen? After 6 months, FreeCAD still does not appear as a verified publisher.

We’re about to release FreeCAD 1.1 and it would be great to have this sorted by then.

Is there anything we can do on our side? Note: I’m a FreeCAD contributor, not a representative of the FPA (Chris, who wrote the first message is), but happy to help in what I can to make this happen. Thanks!

Hi,

Apologies for the delay. The publisher status for FreeCAD has now been updated to “Verified”.

Thanks,

Odysseus

Thanks so much for that!
