Now only sysops (isn't developer obsolete?) can register new users. But it's all in your LocalSettings.sample
So potential new users can apply per mail.
To clarify: when logged in as a sysop, go to [[Special:Userlogin]] manually, and you can create a new account from there.
<couriosity> I haven't tried to use just an users username in that array yet. Would it work? </couriosity>
It _might_ work if you add the username to the user's user_rights field. Try it and see!
