I apologize for not responding sooner but the issue is now resolved.  It was an 
issue with SASL still happening do to an asynchronous operation running in the 
background.  I think we may have an additional question as we have a new 
discrepancy but we are conducting some additional testing before bringing it 
up.  I might be able to head off some questions by asking everyone what they 
think the term "service", referenced in the XEP is referring too.

The XEP lays out two distinct uses for in-band registration:  a service 
registering (I assume on behalf of another user) and the user registering 
themselves during the negotiation process with a server.  We have handled the 
second case and are working on the first.  We assumed that "service" referred 
to some application (client or component) that already has an account and would 
simply use the registration process to register another use.  Is this an 
accurate assumption?

Thanks for the response.
