I've been developing software in Germany for years now, and while offshoring never completely stopped, the trust in offshoring dropped a lot. And only very basic tasks are sent abroad, since cultural differences have made it impossible to trust any output. Eastern Europe has the advantage of a more closely related culture than India which was the prime offshoring target in the 90s, but as you say the salary differential isn't as large, meaning a lot of companies will think twice about the overhead.
