using your e-mail and password as authentication. The reply is supposed to look something like this:

<user display_name="spaetz" account_created="2007-03-19T19:00:56+00:00">

To create the tahngo account it will try to get the username from the part within the display name using a regexp like this:
        p = re.compile('<user display_name="(\w+)"')
This would capture only a part of the name if it contained special chars and it would be empty if there was no display_name at all. Your error message showed that the display name was apparently empty (or didn't match the above regexp) and therefore the whole thing failed. I will make the thing more bullet proof and use a random string if there is none set or something similar.
Out of curiosity, what is your display_name ?

This is how it will work like. I just had a diff with a wrong URL up there for a time.
