Bug Description

eg:
https://staging.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+mirror/mirror.aarnet.edu.au-archive/+edit

One of the last options is:
"Apply to be an official mirror of this distribution"

The official AU mirror, edited to update the link speed (10gbs wooo!),
Seeing as they ARE the official mirror, it was felt that the "apply..." was no longer relevant, so it was unchecked, and thence saved.

And thence disappeared from the list of mirrors:
https://staging.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors

We verified this in staging; and flipping the checkbox active; brought the site back onto the list of archive mirrors.

It's not entirely clear what this checkbox means from this behaviour in addition to it's stated purpose?
