For those who followed that thread, with the modifications we discussed 
above (and some more exchanges with Simos on google doc comments), we do 
have that tutorial, focusing on how to snap a python application 
published here: https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/snap-python-app

Congrats again Simos, well done, and looking for more :)
Cheers,
