I have very similar experience about registering a group/project on
Freenode.
I've done it for MOSS4G and #moss4g channel (I understood I have to
register to get registered channel) but with no response.
Yes, the group registration took some time and was very manual, but
cornering one of the admins online really helped :)
I don't see any benefit, personally, to having a registered group
managing all the OSGeo project channels as well. Since #osgeo is
really the main one tied to an organisation. The main benefit is
that no one can officially take over control of your channel for some
reason, but if you've registered the channel already, then you
already have full control.
If you ever end up being concerned and don't want to risk anything,
then rename your channel to include the #osgeo- prefix, e.g. #osgeo-
moss4g. A few local chapter groups are already doing this e.g.
#osgeo-fr #osgeo-es.
