Hi Jurgis,

I think this just may be confusion over what your launchpad username is,
for a couple of reasons.

It seems that your username is jurgis-pralagauskis, but your display
name is jurgis.pralgauskis. Also the tutorial uses a username containing
a dot.

I think that you are just particularly unfortunate to have been caught 
out by this due to your username and display name. I don't think we
need to change the documentation, but if you can show us how to make
it unambiguous we can consider it.

Thanks,

James
