[Scale-planning] speaker info on badges

[Hriday Balachandran]

The issue with a label printer and a QR code is that it adds to the badge
pickup time.

The far more elegant solution is a smart phone app with notifications
enabled. The ones out there are expensive and not really worth it for us.
We would need to develop one. If there's someone that wants to take the
task on, please let me know.
