Hopefully Gaiman gets as much say in the series as he did with Good Omens. He's not the writer, though, so that's not a good sign in my eyes.

I think he's under an exclusive writing contract to Amazon Prime, so I don't think he can write for this series.

Neil Gaiman Takes To Twitter To Answer Questions About Netflix’s Adaptation Of ‘The Sandman’
I wonder if they'll include the (brief) appearance by members of the JLA.
No God please no.

He was so closely involved only because it would have been a joint project with Terry Pratchett. He wanted it to be what Terry would have wanted.

According to the link he will be less involved than Good Omens (good) and more involved than American Gods (good).
I had high hopes for American Gods but season 2 proved less than awesome: it was too vague and all over the map, trying to catch up with the fact that not enough worldbuilding/fluff/lore was provided in the first season. As for Good Omens, it was great, but did feel a bit like there was too much hand-holding/narration going on there (i.e. too many writer's notes in the script's margins, perhaps?)

Gaiman was much more closely involved on AG Season 2 than 1, so I was surprised when he seemed to be suggesting he wasn't that closely involved after all.
He also has this development deal with Amazon, which I assumed would prevent him working for Netflix, but apparently not. It would seem to be a non-exclusive deal.
Let us now ask a very important question: who will they cast for the role of Death? That's kinda important :)

Please cast her in that role. It is indeed too important to risk it with anyone else.
Eva Green would be a good pick.
