Bug Description

I want to see if someone is allowed to upload to a given PPA, because of bug 814725 I can't just upload and see what the error is, I have to look before I leap.

IArchive.isSourceUploadAllowed() looks like it might be relevant, since I'm interested in seeing whether that person is allowed to upload source. However, when I ask if I am allowed to upload the source package 'hello' to my own PPA for the current release of Ubuntu, I am told "no":

>>> ppa.isSourceUploadAllowed(person=me, distroseries=ubuntu.current_series, sourcepackagename='hello')
False

I would expect that the answer should be 'True', since I am allowed to upload source to my own PPA.
