Wow these are really great news. Already used Play 1.2.3 and this was already amazing easy to work with. Working now with grails 1.3.7 and I definitely will change to Play after finishing my current project. Grails is a pain and it doesnt feel very light as its built uppon the spring stack which is huge. Using plugins is sometimes risky as they are outdated and you dont really understand what they are doing in the background. I also like the type safe approach of Scala/Java which you dont have in grails(groovy/java). This is also very useful for code completion in IDEs

Hey there, i can't give you insight about the legalities and taxation details.

But in the most cases(Germany) its the lack of trust why we are not offshoring to india or bangladesh. The customers or even management have some anxiety about sharing their specification/code with other firms outside of europe or even outside of germany.

I worked for 2 years in a company where the long term goal was to offshore all of their technical stuff to india. And i can say it took us a long time to build the confidence between the employees(project manager etc.) to work with india in an efficient way.
