Excellent points. In my personal experience, I've had terrible dealings with overseas firms. On the flip side, the sharpest person I've ever worked with was from New Delhi. Getting back to the point at hand, I believe that Pick Systems had some development work done in Russia, during the early 90's. I remember their work as being very good and remarkably bug-free. (Of course, I also drank a lot during those days, so my memory may not be that good.) Now,all of a sudden, at the same time that Rocket Software picks up U2, we start getting questions from rsystems in India. Naturally, I wondered if Rocket Software was the company that hired them. Probably not, but I'm still curious.

I've seen exactly this progression in other language lists to which I belong. Indian firm gets contract based on price and claim to know the language. Indian firm tries to get free help from mailing lists, newsgroups, etc, because they don't understand the technology. Indian firm loses contract or is not renewed. We've got personal experience in taking development contracts away from this type of firm.
