Comment 1 for bug 136593

Here are some other relevant details.

authtool_0.2.2~ppa1_source.upload:

Successfully uploaded ../authtool_0.2.2~ppa1.dsc to ppa.launchpad.net.
Successfully uploaded ../authtool_0.2.2~ppa1.tar.gz to ppa.launchpad.net.
Successfully uploaded ../authtool_0.2.2~ppa1_source.changes to ppa.launchpad.net.
(3 times)

.dput.cf:

[my-ppa]
fqdn = ppa.launchpad.net
incoming = ~nealmcb/ubuntu/
login = anonymous

It would seem that getting dput to provide some sort of tracking id would enable much better status tracking. Perhaps the dput output should indicate the full upload location in its output as a URL like
 ftp://ppa.launchpad.net/~nealmcb/ubuntu/authtool_0.2.2~ppa1.dsc (or whatever)

and that could be cut-and-pasted as input in some launchpad web query to get status?
Or Is ftp just the wrong sort of protocol for this queue injection function?
