As I've been looking at things trying to get them wrapped up for a release,
one of the dependencies that is a bit of a challenge to manage is
django-registration. We're stuck in limbo where we should probably convert
to using the latest version but it hasn't been officially released yet.
There are probably a few patches I would like to provide so that it is a
little more compatible with the latest django versions.

My question for this group is, how are you typically integrating Satchmo
into your other django sites? Is Django registration common enough that if
we tried to maintain our own fork, that you would be put at a disadvantage?
In general, I like having the benefits of using other packages but
sometimes we get too tightly restricted to another release cycle. Also,
registration is fairly mature and not going to drastically change in the
future.

>From the way I see it, there are 4 options:
1. Stay the way we are and convert when 0.8 is actually released
2. Switch to using django-registration tip
3. Fork registration and include it in satchmo natively
4. Fork it and include it as a separate package

Hynek has already done #4 here -
https://bitbucket.org/hynekcer/django-registration/overview

These options aren't necessarily mutually exclusive. We could switch to our
own version then switch back later.

There may be other options but I'm curious to hear what the group thinks
and how they use registration today and what works and what doesn't.
