Perl, Outsourcing and China

| 3. Contribute! We need more members of the Chinese Perl community to join in
| open source projects and make contributions. Something that desperately needs
| contributers is documentation. We need the standard set of Perl documentation
| in Chinese. What can companies do? If your company is taking on LAMP projects
| but you lack the skilled resources for the job, obviously you need to put
| together a serious training program. Ideally you would have these LAMP
| trainees work on one of the many open-source projects out there first and let
| them build up their LAMP skill-set, then once they are suitably trained, let
| them loose on your customer's code. Don't just rush through the training! You
| don't want to make a bad impression on your customer by having people with
| little or no Perl skills hacking on their code. One big advantage you get
| with letting your LAMP trainees work on open-source projects is that they get
| code-reviewed by experienced Perl engineers. Also, your company gets some
| street-credit for making contributions to open-source projects and you are
| more likely to attract better talent in the future.

China could soon kick Microsoft out (starting with Office), but
Microsoft 'bribes' the countries with investments and promises (last seen 2
days ago). It's not profitable because people in China don't buy Microsoft
software. It's wrongly assumed sometimes that number of copies of Windows and
Office are indicative of profit.
