Can you elaborate on how this is different from Flatpak's
currently-rather-open sandboxing (as seen elsewhere in this thread)?
It's different in that we're not issuing press releases loudly touting
how great it is. i.e. we're following responsible development
practices: while the product isn't actually done yet, we're talking
about it on blogs and at developer conferences and working to complete
it. While *their* product isn't actually done yet, Canonical is issuing
press releases which beg their readers to infer that a) Snappy is
completely done and b) all distributions have adopted it.
