Great post - with a very huge caveat: being out of the office means you miss a lot of nuance that is very, very important. There is a cultural language, and a lot of facts outside the scope of normal direction. I've worked remotely often and this has always been a huge issue: requirements can almost never be communicated succinctly, they come in waves and indirections. So if we can solve that one ... this makes more sense. As for the 'open office' concept, I can't think of anything more absurd. When I visit my clients I can't get anything done.
