Very good, I'm thinking of being a hub.
I am missing the part about using makeNL, but the documentation confuses 
me a bit, (unfortunately there is no documentation in Spanish yet)

Can you share your expertise? i'm search for real world example for 
begin play with it

Using passthrough is not complicated, you have to configure in echocfg 
in each echolist it has the data of the areafix of your uplink
and the "Forward AreaMgr Request" option to true.

This makes the tags appear in areas.bbs with a P indicating that they 
are areas that you do not host. This works for my points
