Comment:

 Fixed.

 The whitescreen page you experienced was a bug with loading the success
 template. Any account being requested still actually got created and sent
 an email with the password (and was also signed up for the notification
 list).

 The download page has been updated to remove the email address input form.
 You have to go through the signup form on /list to join the notification
 list (simultaneously getting a .org account if you don't already have
 one), which is where the still-existing 'Join' button takes you. Removing
 the email address input form should remove any expectation that a user is
 directly signing up for anything from the /download page.
