It is a work in progress that needs developers and Bitcoin investors. It was written from scratch and the main developer needs Alpha users, investors with Bitcoin, and other help.

"Just make sure you explain that it's a definitely a work in progress, with a lot of rough edges and stuff... and that we're mostly looking for developers, bitcoiners (investors!!) and alpha testers."

You can create an invite code using a person's bitcoin address that they use to validate the user.

"The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator at root@localhost to inform them of the time this error occurred, and the actions you performed just before this error."

Initial cynical/snarky reaction: "So, right up there with typical and expected Bitcoin project coding/security/deployment/reliability standards then..."

It is still being developed. Main developer is looking into the server 500 errors but his work machine had technical issues.

Yeah... it's deployed on a free AWS server... and I think we're starting to get popular enough (and some spam bots) that we're running out of server threads...

Will be hitting that ASAP... but got to get my dev machine back up and running...

It's a work in progress... but this is a deployment issue, not a coding issue... not that that makes much difference from a new user pov.
