As long as the datatypes are only used in a specific firmware or community, all 
people know about the assignment and there is no need to register the number - 
its like using the private LAN 192.168.0.0/16 network in your home network, 
you know that you use it and you don't have to tell anyone.

However if you write up some software potentially used in many *different* 
communities, like vis, its a good thing to register.

In any case, please choose and feel free to let us know. :)

Cheers,
