I think the point of registering after an update is to give an indication how many users are using just that version of OOo. If one has registered once with Sun the procedure is painless, as after clicking «I want to register», all one has to do is log in (at least that's the way I remember the procedure, which I used recently to update to the 3.2.0 RC4)....
