It's really a showstopper when people can't add to the wiki and the forum ... I have worked with Mediawiki and LDAP before and have a lot of PHP (and other) programming experience. If you can't get it to work, I'd be happy to join in and resolve the problem - at least I will try to. Just write me a mail if you're interested (I need to ask some questions at the forum ...)

Two people said on IRC that creating a new account worked for them, when omitting the "real name" field.
