You're supposed to used that link at the side to the kforge-user mailing 
list but, as you are pointing out, this is inadequate.

Yes. We're aware of this and it is (or should be) a ticket. I'll fix 
this particular instance of the problem by using the sysadmin interface 
to make you project administrator.

Yes. See:

http://project.knowledgeforge.net/kforge/trac/ticket/26

This probably isn't more than an 1-2 hours of work to add a few bits to 
the login page but we need to find that hour! (All patches gratefully 
accepted ...)

Do you mean you get redirected to the login page with the message:

"You'll need to login to access this page"

In this case the account has been created but you haven't been logged in 
and so get the error message. This *is* a bug but not a showstopper.
