Automatically sign-up people to a Launchpad sprint

[dzin Jan 27, 2012] Needs to be done before 2012.q1 connect
[dzin Feb 24, 2012] Move to next cycle, important for 2012.q2 connect
[dzin Apr 3, 2012] Move to 12.04 Cycle.
[danilo Apr 24, 2012] Different approach is used for this, avoiding Launchpad altogether.
[dooferlad Apr 24, 2012] We are exporting information required for registration in Launchpad from our registration form through a private API that will be used by a script to register users for Connect. This is, I assume, a temporary measure until we have everything we need in Summit.
[dzin Apr 27, 2012] Move to backlog unavailable resources and clarification
[dzin May 4, 2012] The workaround described by danilo and dooferlad above is being used to execute the functionality described by this blueprint for Connect Q2.12.
[danilo May 7, 2012] Decided in the planning meeting between dzin, asac, danilo that this is no longer needed (implemented differently).
