I can't reproduce this, I see PPAs where I added myself as an uploader in the copy list.

I'm trying to copy from:

To:
https://edge.launchpad.net/~oem-archive/+archive/moblin-karmic

but see no moblin-karmic in the drop down list of destination PPA's. I'll attach a screenshot

Is the ~oem-archive/moblin-karmic ppa named something funky in the list that I'm not seeing?

No, it doesn't appear to be there. See my attachment for how it looks in the list for me.

The problem appears to manifest itself when you have indirect privs via a team that has upload permissions. If you're specified directly as an uploader the PPA will appear in the drop-down list for copying.

To be completely frank I'm disgusted that you and apport waste my time.
