It is actually funny that everyone talks of wages rising in India, but one thing that people never consider is the dollar - rupee conversion. It hovers around Rs.45 to a dollar and Rs.52 to a Euro. Even if the wages do rise the net effect in terms of dollar would be far less, while the equivalent rise in wages in the West would be far more. So overall the benefit still stays.
Also India is producing scores of IT professionals and this is not going to change anytime soon as the viewpoint is that a career in engineering is far better than anything else. To be frank art(read humanities, languages and stuff) and commerce are looked down upon in India.

Debian with FF1.0.7 died though. Too bad.
