Proposal: Fedora at Home Project

I've been trying to create a login at the Fedora wiki, but I keep 
getting an Internal Server Error.  I e-mailed sysadmin-devel at redhat.com 
yesterday as the error page suggested but haven't seen a response yet. 
Does anyone know if this issue is being investigated?

Thanks,

Bryan
