"Danese is also concerned about the number of Indian startups which target the American market. Yes, that market is large, but it is also distant and highly competitive. Indians would be better advised to work on problems in India."
This is strange. What does it have anything to do with free software? Why is this lady suddently concerned about Indians doing business in the US? Sorry but what I really meant was, what was she smoking?

A day at FOSS.IN Posted Dec 12, 2005 20:32 UTC (Mon) by aigarius (subscriber, #7329) [Link] Actually it is quite relevant - one of the strong sides of a small free software based company is the ability to be close to the customer, provide local support, understanding and customisation. Indian companies that target US market are missing that potential. Using local resourses before branching abroad is a strategy that has a greater chance of success, especially for FLOSS based businesses.
