As of today, registration/renewal is 200,000 Guarani = $32.71 at interbank rate. Foreign entities (but perhaps not individuals) can apply via a local representative or at least a local billing agent (such as on NIC_PY's ISP list) . I have the impression (but am not sure) that names would actually be website.com.py (or .org.py for a nonprofit). Names can be rejected for reasons like belonging to someone else. A DNS (or DNSes) must be specified to indicate intention to use the name rather than just 'park' it. A justification more specific than 'website' must be included and will be read and judged. Inquiries can be sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I don't know how they would respond to the idea of punning .py. Terry J. Reedy -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
