Some where between 80 and 90% of activity bundle download traffic
comes from Uruguary:)  I am hoping to find a couple of mirrors in
Uruguay in the next couple of days.  If you have any leads....  We
need room for about 30GB of content.

Yes, .82 deployments are set to communicate directly with olpc
servers.  This has been updated in .86.  Another option is for Sugar
Labs to work with the VIG to make our mirror system available to OLPC.
