Just to encourage feedback...

The reason we are asking for your attention is that we intend to hand
this back to the Launchpad team for maintenance, the same way
rocketfuel-* scripts (which we intend to replace/delete) are our shared
responsibility now.  We figured that wasn't fair unless we included
everyone earlier rather than later for an opportunity to participate in
goals and design.

Similarly, we'll also move the lpsetup code reviews into the standard
Launchpad dev group.
