Back when I was looking into outsourcing, friends told me that whomever I hire outside the country, make sure it is very clear that: A) They do NOT use any GPL'd code in the work they do. B) They do not COPY any competitor or other product in the process. Apparently people hire outside companies to develop software and end up getting "borrowed" products in return. Just a thought.
