I've had a lot of great success recruiting from this list before, so I won't let your comments affect my feelings toward the talent on this list. It DOES matter for your tax purposes that you are working for an American company as a contractor rather than being taken on as an employee of an Indian company. We value our employees and contractors abilities and intelligence and always strive to give them enough information to make an informed decision. To all of you who have responded with Resume's and other inquiries, we would like to thank you for your submissions, and we will review your emails and reply shortly. [...] OK, that was a quite a reasonable reply to a somewhat snide remark on my part. Thanks for the clarifications. I had thought that the implication of your original message was that a American company was somehow automatically better to work for, but from your follow-up I see that I was jumping to conclusions.

While there arguably are good reasons to explain the discrepancy between the production of open-source software between the US and India, I have no wish to recommence beating that particular dead horse. Granted the obvious truth of your premise that there is a lot more open-source work being done in the US than in India, I still fail to see how that has any bearing on this particular issue, where we have no idea what company it is, or any indication that the work involved is going to end up as open source.
