Hmmm. Another 'pede said that any form of sexual intercourse is still subject to registration if the victim is under 15.

So, what is oral sex under California law? Did he just legalize NAMBLA in California?

Spez, got my answer. Per the Bill Analysis published on 8/24:

Exempts a person convicted of non-forcible sodomy with a minor, oral copulation with a minor, or sexual penetration with a minor, as specified, from having to automatically register as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registry Act if the person was not more than ten years older than the minor at the time of the offense, and the conviction is the only one requiring the person to register.

Spez, here's the link to the source:

Click on "Assembly Floor Analysis" for the PDF that contains the above.

But, this bill is not yet law.

Per the bill history, it passed out of the committee on a 10-6 vote and 2 "NVR" (which I assume means "no vote recorded"). But back in the Senate, it passed on the floor 25-3, with 10 NVR.

Maybe the Assembly will grow a spine, but I doubt it.
