Good to hear the Holy grail of visas has become slightly easier to obtain!
Interesting that you didnt need a letter of recommendation to obtain the transit visa, but did need to register. Previously (in my experience 2005) it was necessary to get a letter of recommendation before getting the usual 30 day visa, wait six weeks while the embassy ignored you, but once you got the visa and entered, you were deemed to register at the border and hence didn't need to go through all the hassle of registration upon arrival in Khartoum.
Either way, this is an encouraging development for one of the most interesting countries on the continent!
cheers
