Apparently my username isn't valid, and when I try to register...

Was registration disabled to protect against spam bots? My user account still works, despite over a year of inactivity.

Sigh, do I have to register a new name on the forum just so I can edit the wiki?

Thats justice for the long suffering of the underscore people.

I've just reverted that fix though...
For now it seems we can't allow both people with space and people with underscore in their name to edit the wiki at the same time
(Mediawiki 'cleans up' usernames and loses information in that process: it converts underscores to spaces and keeps spaces as is, then obviously the names don't match properly with phpBB account name anymore and there is no way to reconstruct the original name... I haven't found yet where it does this name mangling..)
