Comment 1 for bug 336779

Exposing view permissions for archive subscribers is not that great an idea I don't think, it lets the subscriber see a lot more than the archive owner probably intends.

There is a requirement for the Software Store in 10.04 to be able browse private PPAs via the API. We need to think more carefully about how the API will do that, rather than rushing forwards with a quick hack to open IArchive. We can possibly proxy information via the subscription, which has its own set of permssions.
