Use Q2A users in Wordpress

Question

I have a running q2a site and about 400 users. Now I installed a wordpress blog in a subdirectory which works great. Problem: I want to use the users for the wordpressblog that already have registered for the q2a site. How can I achieve this? Thanks in advance.

Comments

I think this is most common issue many site owners when they want to integrate with existing Q2A site. I think it requires wordpress plugin to implement...adding in my Wordpress Plugin Dev road map but hope if someone develop meantime that would be great.

This may not give you an out of the box working solution, but I think part of the job is done there:

Along with some article to explain the "proof of concept"
