Again speaking only from the Indian context, we're somewhat unique when compared to China and Japan ;-). It's extremely unlikely that a non-english speaking user will become a developer. As I mentioned in my previous mail technical education is almost completely in English. Most Indian IT work places communicate almost exclusively in English, including verbal communication because of employees from all over India with different native languages. English is not a language barrier for developers or even technical users from India.
