Registration depends on having an XS school server on your network,
doing DNS and DHCP etc so that the XO can find it at a well-known DNS
name. There are more details to it, but I'm not familiar with them.

Registration has probably several outcomes, but the one that I'm
particularly aware of is setting the jabber server to the correct DNS
name of the jabber server on the XS installation.

On non-XO distributions, until we work on interoperating with the XS
we should probably patch sugar to remove the Registration option.
