3. You can write a paper regardless of whether you plan to attend SemEval-2016 at San Diego (registration for SemEval-2016 and participation are optional, but strongly encouraged). Your paper will be published even if you do not register for SemEval-2016 (provided that reviewers find it to be of acceptable quality).
 

4. There is no need to describe the task in much detail, as you can point to the system description paper instead (BibTex below). We will cite back your system description paper in the task description paper:
