Anyway, being able to disband the SF office as regards software development (and perhaps more), and switch to remote work only, would probably be the single most effective measure for enhancing communication and cooperation in the movement.
As someone who moved to SF to work here, I could not disagree more. The amount of time and energy I save being near many of the people I work with closely in the same space is enormous. Not to mention the fact that many of us work better together with people we are able to see socially and so on. I could go on, but the truth is I think no one actually responsible for making such a decision is crazy enough to get rid of a central office. (Move the office? Maybe someday if we really are forced to. We've done it before. But get rid of a central office? No.)
