Funny, the username length limit in django models is 30 chars, mysql table in mozillians-dev has a 255 limit character and this username is 40 chars ?!

We also have the 30 char limit in urls.py to match usernames, so this is why this is not working. 

I can remove the urls.py limit and it will work, but let's take note to clean up our user data.
