It seems that the problem that caused the OOPS error was the length of the summary that you introduced when trying to create a new project.

On LP side we could do a better job handling that situation and provide guidance if we detect that the user is providing a too long summary.

Till that gets solved, you will be able to proceed if you substantially reduce the length of the summary of the project that you were trying to create.

Thanks for the report.

The OOPS and some existing user data also makes it clear that the user is trying to post spam to Launchpad, so I've suspended their account.

That said, there's a real bug here which I'm digging into.
