This bug is fixed now. If your OSM display name contained anything else than characters, numbers, or underscores my display name parsing would fail and it would refuse the account. (The problem being that django only accepts such account names and I thought that the OSM server would also be similarly strict on the usernames. apparently not)

I created a test account with display name "schnitzel at work" on OSM and got exactly the same error message. I made that name parsing more robust now, in case of "weird" user names, i will construct a user name based on the email address (replacing all "weird" chars by underscores. So my test account schnitzel at work, with email address osm at sspaeth.de showed up as user "osm_sspaeth_de" in the user list now. I think that is an acceptable solution.

Thanks for helping me find that bug.
