Bug Description
Nothing about being the owner of the Ubuntu archive (via ~ubuntu-archive) entitles one to copy packages into it. I can see how that's wise for uploads; we have archive administrators who aren't core developers and they shouldn't get that permission until they've demonstrated the usual significant level of packaging clue. However, for copies, this kind of gets in the way of automation (see bug 1006871 for examples). I ought to be able to set up a script that can copy packages from Debian for auto-syncing without also having to give it blanket upload rights.
Would it make sense, perhaps, for check_copy_
