** Description changed:

  For natty final we want to support  archive.canonical.com,
  extras.ubuntu.com and the for-pay origins (in addition to the "regular"
  origin).
  
  To do that the server needs to be extended to support this, the client
  already sends along the origin information that it gets from the archive
  release file (in lowercase) when submitting a review.
  
  E.g.:
  - archive.ubuntu.com its "ubuntu"  
(http://archive.ubuntu.com/dists/natty/Release)
  - archive.canonical.com its "canonical" 
(http://archive.canonical.com/dists/natty/Release)
  - extras.ubuntu.com its "lp-ppa-app-review-board" 
(http://extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release)
  - a PPA its "lp-ppa-mvo" 
(http://ppa.launchpad.net/mvo/ppa/ubuntu/dists/lucid/Release)
  - a private PPA its e.g. lp-ppa-commercial-ppa-uploaders-vendetta-online 
(https://private-ppa.launchpad.net/commercial-ppa-uploaders/vendetta-online/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release)
  
  The client will use the origin information to get reviews as well. It will 
have to special case the software-center-agent ones
  and add something like:
      origin = "lp-ppa-%s" % item.archive_id.replace("/", "-")
  to get the origin for the agent.
+ 
+ QA Notes:
+ Currently this is difficult to QA as there are no for-pay apps for natty yet. 
To trick USC you need to update (1) your sources.list entry for the archive you 
are testing (either a for-pay private ppa, or archive.canonical.com), and then 
(2) update DISTRIB_CODENAME to 'maverick' in /etc/lsb-release, then (3) `sudo 
apt-get update`, and run software center.
