Dear Alice,


I am a master's in IT student at Lappeenranta University of Technology in
Lappeenranta, Finland. I am writing my master's thesis titled "Outsourcing
and Offshore Software Development in Africa."  The aim is to investigate
the history, the current state and the expected future of offshore
software development practices in Africa.



I read an article you wrote about New Generation of Policy Development. I
would like to request you for any information that you might have
regarding offshore outsourcing of software development in Africa. Anything
ranging from written reports, articles or contacts to companies that are
providing offshore software development services will be gladly
appreciated.



If you are interested in my findings, I can send you a pdf version of the
thesis upon completion.



Looking forward to your response,



Best Regards

Leah Riungu
