Comment 2 for bug 573471

The docstring in the script does mention.

 * this script will only work when run by members of ~canonical,
   because it's a private team

I thought that might have caused this wasn't sure. I suppose the
easiest fix would be to just give a clearer error message.

I tried running the script after commenting out ~canonical from
AUTHORIZED_TEAMS and the script seems to work fine.
If ~contributor-agreement-canonical is a superset of ~canonical
(is it?) maybe ~contributor-agreement-canonical is enough?

For e.g. the output I got after
AUTHORIZED_TEAMS = [ 'contributor-agreement-canonical' ]
