I've had the error before and found it difficult to find the link where to register for an account. I had to ask in the IRC and someone had to point me to it, I believe this could be made easier to find.
Go to code.djangoproject.com look at the tabs: Login | Settings Wiki, Timeline, Browse Source, Reports, View Tickets, New Ticket, Roadmap, Search. Where is the register link?? I recently setup Trac on my own server, and although I am very new to Trac, I installed the registration plugin and my tabs say: Login | Settings | Help/Guide | About Trac | Register Wiki, Timeline, Roadmap, Browse Source, View Tickets, Search. I think you need to make the registration page more obvious, people currently have to hunt for it. I'm not sure how the link to the registration page was even removed as my accounts plugin for Trac put it in there automatically. The method I use to combat spam is only allow people to file tickets and edit the Wiki if they create an account, and the register link is easily visible at the top of the site. Also, I used a captcha plugin on the registration page (I had to actually patch it into the accounts plugin, but it was very easy).
