BTW, In Uruguay you don't need a hosting 
agreement. If you are an inernational 
non-governemntal organization, you can apply to 
be recognized as an International organization 
with a dipolomatic status that includes tax free 
and inviolability of files and facilities.

Lacnic is incorporated in Uruguay under this 
status and also LACTLD (the latinamerican 
association of ccTLDs), CLARA (the latinamerican 
association of advanced networks), and many other organizations.
There about 100 organizations with this status in 
Uruguay (including the Latinamerican branch of IDRC)
