HostBot is now authenticating through OAuth when sending daily invites. Here's an example of the new code: https://github.com/jtmorgan/hostbot/blob/master/scripts/teahouse/send_th_invites.py

There are many other HostBot/GrantsBot scripts that need to be updated to use OAuth as well. Since I support GrantsBot in my staff capacity, those tasks will be tackled first, now that I've gotten the hang of things. This ticket will be left open in the meantime, until/unless I decide to make it an Epic and break it up into sub-tasks.
