And upstream made it pretty clear that they weren't interested in contributors or building a community :( https://secure.phabricator.com/book/phabcontrib/article/contributing_code/ https://secure.phabricator.com/book/phabcontrib/article/cont... > To contribute to the Phabricator upstream, you must first pass a series of ancient trials and be invited to register an account in the ancestral homeland of Phabricator, here on secure.phabricator.com. The nature and location of these trials is a closely guarded secret.

epriestly has a weird sense of humor. The "trials" were probably sending him a friendly email. (I worked at FB at the same time as him)

  Maybe, but I could also see it deterring would-be contributors.

    I think it was to encourage companies to sign up for support accounts. You can't even comment on issues without one.

I think that's just being honest. Most open source projects make you jump through hoops, they just usually pretend they dont exist.

That’s humor. And based on it the location of the URL to create an account is likely very obvious.
